But I'm pretty sure you treat it like an oven. Get the grill up to like 350 and cook it for about the same time. Obviously hard keeping the temp steady but not impossible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957166 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:17:29 +0000 matador84 1957166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: will you ask him how long? Does he add anything? Feel free to wall me! Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957165 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:17:01 +0000 catomd00 1957165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Any chance you're close with a neighbor who won't be home and will let you cook there? My parents had to do that once! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957164 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:16:49 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1957164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: yup DH says use the pan. We typically get a throw away foil one from the grocery store and use tin foil on top. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957160 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:14:40 +0000 Corduroy 1957160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well better now than on Thanksgiving. :bummed: I'd find a premade turkey and find a way to watch Pieces of April. I was going to say rent but who does that anymore? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957159 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:13:36 +0000 matador84 1957159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: check please! I wouldn't mind stocking up on propane! Hahaha!</p> <p>I really wanted a prayers Cajun fried turkey that is pre cooked...now wishing I had gotten one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957155 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:12:34 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1957155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: ehh let me double check with my husband and or dad. I assume you could but to retain the juices you probably want some kind of pan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957145 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:07:48 +0000 matador84 1957145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Reese: no you are right--Home Depot is running Black Friday already...how do I know? Our washer broke last week and we had to get a new one! Sheesh, when it rains it pours. </p> <p>We'd have to get a new oven anyway.,.might as well get one now...</p> <p>@T.H.O.U.: so how do you cook it? Directly on the grates? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957139 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 21:00:57 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1957139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We love a grilled turkey!! It's totally possible just make sure you have enough propane. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957135 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:58:03 +0000 Reese 1957135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: Is there anyone else that could host considering the situation? I would wait until Black Friday - although I feel like with appliances, they will probably have the sales on now? no? Im a canuck - probably the wrong person to give advice lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957134 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:55:54 +0000 matador84 1957134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Reese: that's what I thought!!!! Not sure if I should buy now or hold off for Black Friday. @regberadaisy: nope! Boooooo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957133 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:55:14 +0000 lawbee11 1957133@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uhhh I would get everything from Luby's (is there one near you?). I'd probably do that even if my oven wasn't broken though :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957131 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:54:24 +0000 Reese 1957131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no! With an oven that old I would go with some of the suggestions above as a temporary solution and look for a good deal. With an oven that old it is probably only the beginning of the end. Not worth dumping $$$ into </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957126 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:50:06 +0000 regberadaisy 1957126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: can you switch houses?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957124 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:46:14 +0000 avivoca 1957124@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: That is awful!!

You can order a fully cooked and prepared turkey (and sides) online and just pick it up that morning.</p> <p><a href="http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/store/event/order-your-turkey" rel="nofollow">http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/store/event/order-your-turkey</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957091 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:21:58 +0000 Boopers 1957091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This actually just happened to a friend today right as she was about to make a turkey! She ended up grilling her turkey. I think she's going to look for Black Friday deals on a new oven. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957090 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:20:43 +0000 regberadaisy 1957090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh. My. God. I don't think there's a worst time for a oven to break!! :shocked: </p> <p>Deep fried turkey? Smoked turkey? Know anyone that has a deep fryer? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-oven-broke#post-1957087 Sun, 23 Nov 2014 20:19:20 +0000 matador84 1957087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's about 3 days before thanksgiving and my oven broke! AWESOME. I have 3 options. </p> <p>Replace the heating element IF we can find one, and get it here before Thursday. Our oven is probably from 1985 and it's a tiny wall unit. And my DH will have to take the oven apart to replace the unit on this type of oven.</p> <p>If we can't replace the heating element, we need to spring for a new oven which is anywhere from 800-1000$. </p> <p>Or, we can cook thanksgiving on the grill outside and treat it like an oven. Is that possible? My husbands suggestion. Omg. </p>
