- Turkey sometimes gets a bad rep. People say it's dry, boring, and bland. (usually because it's overcooked and under-seasoned, but I will save the lecture for the video, lol). Today, we put those rumors to rest and demonstrate how to properly execute a flavorful and juicy bird for the big day. Let's #MakeItHappen

My menu is Dirty Rice, Jamican Jerk Cornish game Hens, and that Caramel Apple Crisp recipe from your recipe short.
Congratulations I'm proud of you! I will be ordering the book and thermometer! I forgot your all purpose seasoning.
I'm here for it Nephew! Let's go!
Happy Thanksgiving (week) AB
I follow both of y'all. Great cooks
Good Morning! Let's Go!
@@jedidias7091 Yeah me too!....awesome
Couple bosses in the kitchen
Well done Nephew! Not to mention that it turned out 🔥
yessir! can't wait to see yours
I must say that I’m a HUGE FAN of you to, I can’t tell you how much you and him have helped me learn how to cook, I DEFINITELY WILL BE BUYING THE COOKBOOK, and looking forward to seeing you guys for the cookbook tour IN ATLANTA‼️ And, yes I’m claiming it…to be so. 😆
Lookin Good! Fire always.
I forgot to mention this weeks ago but this was my first time making a turkey this year (mind you we have a very large family so I was up against 2 other turkeys being made by other family members)! I knew after watching this video for the first time this was going to be it! I did everything to the T!!! It turned out to be the absolute best turkey anyone ever had! I made a 23 pound bird and it was picked dry. I tried to show love to the other turkeys buy they was dry as hell compared to this! Everything was juicy and full of flavor 😋 I felt so good that my first turkey was outstanding and it's all because of you! Thank you for sharing this and your doing amazing things in that kitchen! Congratulations on the cookbook yall! Sending out love to you and yours over this holiday season!
I bought your AP seasoning at my butcher yesterday! I thought I was seeing things when I walked by. Congratulations and I’ll be ordering the cookbook.
Im disabled now and cant get in the kitchen like i used to, but yours and AB video's make my day especially on my tough days they bring me calm and joy. If ever in Brooklyn, NY please take a little time from your schedule and make my whole year with a visit.🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾
So many different ways to make a delicious turkey. I like the citrus hints of flavor and the fresh herbs. Ooooo weekend nice turkey! Happy Holidays!
I’m definitely going to buy you and AB’s cookbook and support! Two of my favorite chefs on this platform. I’ve watched both of y’all since the beginning of your UA-cam careers so to see where both of you have come is amazing and remarkable. So proud of y’all and so happy for y’all! I don’t usually comment but I had to say this. Happy Holidays!
Sooooooo DOPE! Loving the entrepreneurship, brotherhood and consistency!!! A cook book was the exactly what we needed and a the perfect next step. CONGRATULATIONS 🍾
“Looking Good”
Please come to DC during the book tour. Also have you guys thought about a digital or video version of the cookbook maybe down the line? You two are very enjoyable to watch on the the tube. Just a thought. Thanks!
DC for sure! Thank you
Congrats on the cookbook! 👍 This recipe looks amazing. I’m always open to trying a new method. Your presentation is always wonderful, probably one of the best on UA-cam. Wishing you and your family a happy and safe Thanksgiving. Keep those great recipes coming!! Be blessed 😊
Thank you so much! wishing the same for you and yours
Dude you don't miss!! That looks amazing my guy. Congratulations on your book you deserve it. 👏
Thank you so much!
I’m for sure ordering the cook book today!! But question where is the homemade brine recipe because we can’t find a brine mixture anywhere
Congrats on your new cook book. I've been following you and your uncle since you two guys got started. You two make a great team. I will continue to support you two and looking forward to meeting you guys soon. Thank you for making and taking these video's to another level. Happy thanks giving day to you and you family my brother. And please be safe.
Your cooking bro straight fire
Thanks bro
Literally just finished your collab vid with AB, and ordered the book before watching this video! Can’t wait!
Thanks for your support
@@MrMakeItHappen absolutely! You and AB have upped my cooking game for sure! Appreciate everything y’all have done. Keep up the awesome work!
I’ve never made my turkey like this. This is awesome to see.
Celebrity chefs!!!!❤ I love both of you guys dishes...amazing!!!!
I Came Across Your Channel About A Month and Half Ago, Let Me Just Say I Am Highly Impressed! Restaurant Quality Chef-Fantastic Meals!!!!!!!
That gravy footage had me sold. I just make clumpy gravy all the time. Your gravy looked silky smooth. 🎉🎉
GREAT!! I GOT MY AP SEASONING READY FOR MY MENU, & I WISH YOU ALL HAPPY THANKSGIVING. MR MAKE IT HAPPEN & AB, YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!
Thank you!
I want to thank you and AB I have always enjoyed cooking for my family but watching y'all has taken my cooking to a whole new level.. I may not have all the stuff you do but adapting my style and what I have to work with has taken my 3 boys (who are picky eaters) and they clear there plates so I wanna say thank you and I'm looking forward to making the turkey for turkey day using two of your methods and recipes. So thank you again
I made your turkey recipe for my family last year and now i’m forever on turkey duty for the rest of my life. Thanks…. lol 😂
Please come to the ATL!! I love the recipes that you and AB bring…… i started with AB and trying some of his recipes but been doing more of yours lately…… dishes have been 100% satisfying!!!
WOW. In a couple of months I’ll be trying your moist turkey recipe. I’m not cooking this thanksgiving. It looks mire than delicious. Thanks so much.
Nice! Thank you
I did this recipe and had the prettiest turkey EVER!! It tasted good too .. wish I could share the pic .. make me want turkey during the year it was good!
This video is everything. Awesome job‼️
I volunteered to make the thanksgiving turkey this year and I followed this recipe to a T. Best decision I’ve ever made!!!! Everyone loved it! Thank you!!!
Congratulations on your book and Happy Holidays
We gotta get you to 1 mil subs! You definitely deserve it..
"Because why the hell not"?! ❤😂
I hope so! Thank you so much
We really need a thanksgiving ham video next.
Mr. Make It Happen, you really have outdone yourself this time like always. Love the presentation and how you cut the turkey up. That's an Idea I would never have thought of. I always wanted a different way to serve a turkey. Thank you for your outstanding receipts. I have them all. Happy Thanksgiving, and stay safe. Try not to eat a lot.
Thank you! same to you!
Happy Turkey 🦃 Day from my family to yours 😋👍🏼😍
Congratulations on your new book. I started following just a couple of months ago and I love this channel. You're an amazing chef. Thanks for all your recipes. Happy Thanksgiving!!!
I plan to spatchcock prior to brining. But I got a few more ideas thanks to you!
I just placed my order for the cook book. I can't wait!
So I stopped fixing a whole turkey for Thanksgiving & started fixing turkey wings but when I saw how yummy your turkey looked I wanted to try it. My turkey came out hella great! The turkey was the star of the night as it should have been. Thanks for this recipe! I hope it's in the cookbook because its surely worth selling.
I ordered the cookbook before I even watched this video. Can't wait to get it.
I know you may that's too much werk, but normally I cut my bird in half and prepare both halves differently. One is jerk and the other half is garlic and herbs. Yes they are brined first and then smoked! Mmm mmm 😋😋😋😋
Nice!! sounds delicious
I could lick the screen. Outstanding video! Thank you.
Congrats on the cookbook!
YEAH!
Happy Sunday
Love this. I always inject my turkey. I usually use an oven bag for even cooking. I like this method as well. One thing I don't like about oven bags is I have to be careful because it can get too soggy. I appreciate this video. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Yes, and this method cuts down on the total cooking time by a lot!
I am so excited about the cookbook by you and AB. My two favorite chefs. I have placed my order. I just asked you about a cookbook last week. Awesome!! I hope your tour includes the Richmond, VA area. I live in Chester, VA outside of Richmond.
I've never used brine to marinate my turkey. It looks very good. Your turkey turned out very juicy and looks delicious 😋!! I'm cooking a non-traditional dinner this Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
I created a playlist with all of your Thanksgiving recipes and I've already started my shopping. I'll be sure to tag you on IG 😊
Thank you so much
Haha I did the same!
@@TheREELRundownWithJB haha. Great!
Put that pre-order in for long over due cookbook! Lol! So excited for you guys! Looking forward to receiving! Can hardly wait!
LOOKS AMAZING!
I must say that's the best way to slice the turkey breast. That is the best looking turkey I've seen.
Happy Thanksgiving 😊
I make a turkey every year but definitely will be making this turkey recipe this year for Thanksgiving..
. and I think it will go over great with my family... another winner chef Matt
No turkey here, it's just me and my dog but I still love what you did with this turkey. If I had family, I would cook this for them. TYFS😋
Make some turkey wings!
My hat is off to you!! Job will done
I have that shaker cup. Thanks for the reminder that it's smootie time!
Looks incredible!!!!!!!
Such a great accomplishment. Congrats!! Please come to Philly.
I just ordered 2 more AP seasonings. I'm so mad though that I waited until I got too low. I pray that what I have will make it through ALL my menu items because it's going in EVERYTHING! Please come to ATL... I'm getting in line for my book. I love both you guys.
Thank you so much!
Definitely getting the cookbook.
Looks yummy but since I'm the youngest among my siblings, I don't have to cook a turkey. They're just too much work anyways.
This looks so delicious. I’m not celebrating thanksgiving this year I lost my job over not wanting the vaccine due to my pre existing health conditions (lupus) I’m a single mother with two children both are autistic. Im so ashamed I can’t even afford Thanksgiving dinner this year. I have no family or friends that may help me. I feel all alone. Facing homelessness next month, but keeping faith! In GOD!
Good Mr. Mr.Make it happen, u nailed that turkey!!! Great Excellent Chef!!!
Thank you!
That looks delicious. I'm doing a whole 🐔 chicken this year. I have a very small family. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hapy Thankgiving watching your turkey video on youtube. Tell wifey hello. God bless and yall stay beautiful and positive.
I've been following you and AB from the beginning. About to buy the book now. If you do a book tour the wife and I really want y'all to come to NYC!!
Thanks for your support! NY for sure
So excited about the cookbook and the tour!!! Ordering my copy today. I'm in Northern VA, right outside DC, so please make a stop up thisbway!!!
Congratulations!! Can't wait to check out the cookbook. You and AB make a great collaboration. Make sure you add Chicago to the book tour list.
Smoked turkey is a must in my back yard! I do 2 turkeys and 2 smoked hams every year plus sides.. yeah it’s going down!
Let’s get it, Matt. Yes, sir!
!!!!!
Happy holidays to u too. God bless
I made this turkey it was delicious, Ty, for the recipe. The gravy was a bit sour, next time will add less lemon.❤
Dammit I gotta get paid again I want that cook book I've never brought a cook book before but this came at the right time my birthday is next Sunday this will be my birthday gift to me!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you! I appreciate you
I’ve been binging your recipes and purchased your AP seasoning! This year is the first time I’m making EVERYTHING for thanksgiving dinner. Not trying to be nervous about the turkey but like you said, it has a poor reputation. But I’ll manage!
My recommendation is for y’all to visit Philly!
Yesssss son! Thank you!
Thank you
Great recipe. 👍🏾 bring the tour to New Jersey 👀
Chicken or Turkey, spatchcock is the best method. 👌
This reminded me of Bob's burgers, literally just watched the episode where he made the turkey using the same method...never heard of it before this
I use it a lot with chicken, but it works great with Turkey too
LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY FOR THE BOOK TOUR!! please and thank you!! 🙏🏽
>i have never seen a brine done that way,
i like that!! you went all out on this turkey sir!
Thank you! I will add that to the list
OH MY GOSH!

I'm so proud of you both! Please come to Louisville,Ky.! We love to eat 😋 here and it's the big Derby City so why not!??? Excited to purchase this book because you're both my favorite UA-cam chef's God bless you both! 🙏🏽 you deserve it 👏 💓
That looks amazing but still I gotta roll with my smoked fried turkey. Nothing beats that.
