Step 8Barrel Knot - Step 4
5. Pull the two loose ends of the rope to the top of the bird and tie it tight.
The rope on the sides should be down far enough to just capture the top of the wings. You want the rope to hold the wings against the body, but not be positioned too low on the bird If the rope is too far down on the wing the bird could be top heavy and could roll out of the knot.
6. Tie a loop in the loose ends. The loop is used to hang from the hook on the tripod chain.
7. After the rope work is done place the turkey in the oven bag and twist-tie at the top.
Double bagging is recommended insurance. (you don't want to lose the juices on the ground.)
