i have a few folks coming for thanksgiving and im going to be cooking 4 - 18 to 20 lb. turkeys and 3 hams
the hams i can handle
the turkeys im going to try for the first time like i would with beercan chicken
any ideas i need to do
seasoning and oliveoil or butter to baste the outside with want a darkish brown color and
im not going to use a beer can or a fosters can
what do i need ?
i have heard some call them towers that you sit the bird on
going to need 4 of these things
what are they actually called
They are called holders or racks.
Here is a link to one on Amazon.

Do a google search for a rack called "turkey cannon". Same premise as the beer can chicken but designed to handle a turkey.

is there a tower that the turkey sits down on that looks something like one of them fireworks that sit on the square base and about 2 to 3 inch around and about 6 inches high and you can fill the canister as the cooking process is going on

Yes, I've seen something like that at various cooking stores.
