If you fill with water firts be sure to wipe all excess out befor pouring grease in. realy still not a good idea, because your bird is gonna get drenched, and when you put in grease at 350 bad things can go wrong
Just put the bird in, and then pour the grease in till enough, thien pull bird out and put in foil pan till ready

sounds legit...im thinking of throwing some crawfish boil/ some variety of spices similar in the butter and other spices marinade. and see how much zing that'll give it. extra cayenne too...
