they are definitely very adorable.
Two turkeys, zero guests.
That is funny

I have genuinely always hated all of the roasted turkey I’ve had, and I saw this video this summer (I think). I sent it to my dad, who’s in charge of the turkey every year. This year he spatchcocked it and I had seconds and took leftovers. Thank you so much for making this video. I can actually eat protein at thanksgiving now.
Yeah, I’ve never liked turkey because my grandma cooks it dead (its soo dry and bland), though we have ham at the table as well and I wouldn’t dare try to tell her how to cook her food… if it was my mom I would suggest this vid to her.
Yeah, Turkey has been ruined for me because it’s always so dry and bland, it basically tastes lake hot water
Do people in the US not have gravy at Thanksgiving? In England, 90% of the time that we have turkey, we have gravy with it and that can save anything. If you have dry turkey, pour on some gravy (the gravy shouldn't be too thick, but definitely shouldn't be too thin) and let it soak in while you eat some veg then eat the turkey.
Matpat saying that the spatchcock turkey went in the second oven had my brain immediately hear markiplier yelling "I am a man who owns FIVE ovens"

Turkey is definitely delicious but I think that MatPat really appreciates turkey more than I do
Turkey is my favorite meat. Everyone knows on Thanksgiving I get the turkey leg my will not take it out of fear
"I'm not much of a skin guy."
MatPat the serial killer explaining why his victims come peeled like bananas.
i am not agreeing to terms and service anymore
What the...
He also stated that he didn't really like dark meat
Hahaha
Plus he won’t have to worry about if the skin comes out soggy lol
Steph: this isn’t rigged at all
Mat: they don’t care
A man of the people
Cooked my first turkey when I was 25. It was actually pretty easy. Even used the juices to make a gravy for it that tasted divine! The turkey was moist, seasoned perfectly, and was overall a fun cooking experience
Yea its only hard if you cant follow instructions. Its really kinda troubling to think of how many people seem to think cooking is hard. Its not. If you actually try and are capable of following simple instructions. Be thankful that youre one of the few modern people who can follow simple instructions. We're a dying breed.

I couldn’t convince my mom to let us spatchcock the Turkey last year, but over this past year I’ve spatchcocked multiple chicken to show her the benefits of it and now we’re doing it this year.
Two years later and I’m hoping they kept to the data that they found and did a spatchcock this year and didn’t just go back to tradition because trying something new can make your life so much better.
Happy Thanksgiving to whoever sees this, talk to anyone you care about, tell them what you love about them and I hope you can finish this year on a happy note with 2 wonderful holidays.
Stephanie: It’s really moist, it’s well salted, it tastes seasoned, it’s a little battery, it’s exactly the way it should be.

That made me happy as well

Turkey makes me happy too
Turkey makes me very happy
I like chicken :)
Having deep fried turkey is also amazing. Smoked turkey is good. Having a turkey that is smoked for 3/4 of the cooking and finished in the deep fryer was probably the best turkey I've ever had. The only time that my family ever went to get another turkey to cook.
Honestly haven't had an oven baked turkey in over 15 years, but I'm interested in trying this out, now.
I love this episode. A lot of content creators act kitchen illiterate for a reaction, but you guys put effort into finding answering questions. Respect
Mat: *Talking about thanksgiving*

DIET coke man.

Same with Christmas and Halloween 🥺😭🥲
Imagine celebrating Thanksgiving: couldn’t be me or anyone else in my country
You know you're an adult when the one thing that makes your day is getting to write off your favorite meal as a business expense
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Since watching this video, which was so much fun to watch, more than once too! My mother and I have been cooking our Turkey like this for every occasion we make one for, so delicious and simple. Thank you and the team so much!
I'm glad this popped up on my RUclips before Thanksgiving this year of 2021 I'm gonna try it out. I have only cooked a turkey once and though it wasn't terrible I hated the whole let's cook this bird for 3-5 hours. 2.5 hours is definitely much better and just makes getting the whole meal done so quicker.
Imagine you're that turkey in whatever afterlife it has and he's looking down as they're doing "CPR" on his long dead corpse.
That turkey stole my wallet, there’s no way it’s not looking up from the afterlife.

I just wanted to thank y'all for making this video. I've been returning to it every year since it came out cause it's such a great tutorial. Definitely has helped me up my turkey game!
Awesome to see the difference between the two, in recent years my family used slow cookers with the juices in the bottom with a lid so it keeps the meat moist
**does CPR**
"I think we did it, I think he's sufficiently dead."
I think that's healthy... It's not breathing
I was just thinking of this on a human. Paramedic pulls up. Cuts off the head. Rips out the spine. Cuts down the neckbone. Administers CPR.

Today is the day before Thanksgiving 2021 and my fiance and I decided to Spatchcock our turkey tomorrow after I showed her this video at the end of last year. Watched it again to reacquaint myself. Thanks again for doing this one MatPat
Something so wholesome about Mat being happy to have turkey
"sO wHoLeSoMe"
I love how MatPat just rambles for ages about how important and difficult the turkey is, because in my family, it's a goddamn title to be able to cook the turkey (one my mom holds very proudly). Actually, I was born the day before Thanksgiving, so while my mom was in the hospital with a newborn, the rest of the nearly 25 people we had for Thanksgiving that year were scrambling to figure out who could actually cook (since my mom does the stuffing, turkey, gravy, and cranberry sauce. This woman knows her Thanksgiving).
That should be a movie
Oh my god same here. ..For me its november 24th (Dont know if its different or not where you are from) which is the exact day before thanksgiving for me.
November 21, happy late birthdays to those stuck in the Thanksgiving month
@@Vileplume87 I’d watch that movie

@@shifti7387 love you too buddy
@@2Pixelated XD
For next year, perhaps try wrapping the turkey in aluminum foil as that's what my family has been doing for years, and it allows for the picturesque turkey presentation while being much faster at 2 hours so I'd consider it as a medium option between straight roasting it, and and butterflying the bird
I'm rewatching this at 2x speed cause I just want to see the recipe, but I can't skip over the setup/thesis. MatPat, please keep doing what you're doing!
Friendly reminder: get to defrosting your turkey this Sunday.
That's very friendly of you, Serve Turkey. Thank you :)

Also, buy two turkeys (if you can), in case you mess up the first one. If the first one comes out good, you can save the other for Christmas
My first time hosting thanksgiving I was wrecked with anxiety cause it seemed so hard but my mom helped and I realized, it’s not hard to cook, it’s hard to get all the good time right.
When you realise MatPat can keep your attention longer with different ways to cook a turkey than any of your teachers ever could
Mat can u be my tutor!!! It would be like a tutor patreon where u compare stem and core classes but we all get mini theory too!

This year, we ran out of time and I really wanted to try spatchcocking because of this video. We did it, spur of the moment and a bit rough but...it turned out divine. 100/10 will spatchcock again.

Every since this one aired. We do our turkeys this way. And we usually have a turkey for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. It's the best!
I did a literal first pump when you said spatchcock. I've been doing it for over 7 years for Christmas and Thanksgiving both at home and at work. Nothing can match that crispy skin. I always do compound butter under the skin and make sure you tuck the wing tips so the don't burn. Also the neck and spine are great to use for turkey stock.

Latest FNAF game theory reference
Let me out
I do agree with you on this one, my mom and I would wake up at the crack of dawn just so we could cook the turkey first before we did anything else for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and another holiday that we cook whole turkey for some reason. My mom and I actually put our turkey inside of a turkey bag so that it can become more juicy and collect the rest of it for the gravy that goes with it.
I’m back for year 2, thank you MatPat!! Happy Thanksgiving :)
“I think he’s sufficiently dead”
Something about that doesn’t seem right.
@Harry Mough I don't think you understand, I was referencing something they said in the video.
As opposed to the ones that could be revived and turned into undead turkey, it's a pain to catch it, especially if you buttered it, or I suppose if you wined it should be too drunk to get far XD

This is the only way to cook a bird from now on. Cooked my Thanksgiving turkey like this this year and just cooked two cornish hens for Christmas dinner with this method. Video changed my life. Thanks man.
Glad to know your love for this method.
Also spine can be used to make stock that freeze well in fridge, roasted or not.
Same here. This was my first Thanksgiving cooking so it definitely was a pleasant help
I’m not the only person who likes Cornish hens? They’re the BEST!
@@tuddthetotodile5448 same love em
Yeah I'm either doing this or whole smoking from now on. I wonder if you could spatchcock-smoke.. I don't see why not 🤔 No more whole baking/roasting!
I made my very first turkey this year, I'm 36 so I figured it's finally time to adult the f up. I was curious to see if I should have done it differently- and was DELIGHTED to see that y'all did it the way I decided to do it! Mom and I both made turkeys together this year and she was so angry that mine was better, LOL
I have to give credit to Babish though for giving me the idea, but I am really happy to see the food theorists agree that I did it right from the get go
I hosted my first thanksgiving a couple months back and I spatched it and it was amazing!!!! A little dry but this was my first ever turkey and it rocked!!!!!

For years now my family has been using a rotisserie to cook the turkey. And it has been coming out perfectly every year since then!
HOLY FK! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I used your video and a couple other references to create my first turkey ever! This was perfect! Tastes amazing! Juicy! The juice actually spilled down my counter, so I have a bunch of cleaning to do! I've always avoided turkey for thanksgiving because I'm single and don't want to spend a ton of time. Between your video and a couple others, I'll be doing turkey for Thanksgiving as long as I can cook! (Thanksgiving 2022)
Thank you MatPat, thank you for remembering us Canadians who have the weird tradition of having Thanksgiving in October.
It’s not weird. The majority of our country has a shorter harvesting period bc it gets colder so that’s when we celebrate the end of harvest lol
True lol 😂

I had just as hard of a time cutting the spine out when I did it, but it was better for us as well. I do find that a roaster does better than the oven and goes quicker with or without spatchcocking it.
We find out the reason they really started food theory: tax deducting all their food
its a good play

Never forget the food theory without a cold open.
I did spatchcock my turkey this year though and I highly recommend it
I remember my overwhelming skepticism at the thought of oven bags ("clearly" a preposterous idea, compared to basting)... and my absolute conversion instantly after my first use of one. I wonder how those would help/hinder a spatchcocked bird.
*STEPH* = critiquing like gordon ramsey
*MATT* = turkey durged
Turkey makes him happy❤️
Speaking of Ramsey, watch his holiday turkey video to learn the RIGHT way to cook a traditional turkey. There is no comparison. I've made it 5 times and about to do it again. It's way easier than how these two did it as well. I dunno why they made a video about how difficult making a turkey is, cause it really isn't.
“We put the spatchcocked turkey in a *second oven* ” humble flex much
I went looking for this when he said it lol
Mark is a man with 5 ovens.
I have a twin wall oven setup. The ovens are each smaller than a range type oven, but you can cook things at different temperatures at the same time. Or for Thanksgiving, you can cook side dishes in one oven while the turkey cooks in the other. The double wall oven isn’t very expensive. We only use the one oven most of the year. Nice to have the oven at eye level too.
@@stephen3164 I must ask my husband if we can get double ovens when we buy a house now.
The whole kitchen is a humble flex. But they earned it.
Stephanie: I have to go Spachcock
Mat: (yelling) RIGHT!
This video has changed my life for the better. I will never cook a turkey the normal way again. It’s so juicy and amazing. I will always recommend this to people as well. It’s so much better!!!
Next year: deep-fried turkey v. Spatchcocked turkey
sous-vide is by far the best preparation. separate the turkey into all its pieces raw. cook for 4 hrs in a water bath (not active). put the pieces on a cooling rack in the fridge (this can be cooked in advance). deep fry to reheat and crisp skin at dinner time. Being able to cook the turkey the day before or in the morning when you arent having to do other things is really nice.
Deep fried spatchcocked turkey? 🤔
'Murica Vs a little bit less 'Murica
Deep frying a whole bird is the worst idea ever. IDK why people do it. it's the reason turkey gets a bad rep and why when you talk to 10 people, at least 7 of them will say they prefer ham because turkey is dry...

My family often has a prime rib for Christmas and prime rib trumps turkey IMO. I still really enjoy Thanksgiving though. As for spatchcocking the turkey, thanks for the tip. Stuffing/dressing is one of my favorite parts, but you can make it separate and outside the bird
I use to work in Nando’s and we would spatchcock our chickens when cooking them in the ovens.

Dear God-
Oh dear god
That happened to us too but with the corn casserole
AnD i OoP-
My dad did it upside down ._.
Dry brine the day before (salt and sugar rubbed on the skin). Day of stuff with onions and apples (lots of moisture which keeps it moist from inside), mayo on the skin (traps moisture and gets brown). Lots of herbs and chicken stock in the bottom of the pan for gravy and moisture. The Flavors by Ale recipe is amazing!
