Maple bourbon turkey with a butter/maple syrup glaze.

Feeling mighty stuffed now. Had turkey, ham, stuffing, potatoes, green bean casserole and french bread. Turkey gravy with the turkey drippings. Made a Holy Toledo dessert dish. Consists of softened vanilla ice cream. Vanilla pudding mix. Whipped together in the stand mixer. Melted butter and crushed Ritz crackers for the crust. Cool Whip for the topping. More crushed Ritz sprinkled on top. My favorite holiday dessert. And it can be kept in the fridge.

My wife and I don't have any family that live close to us, so we were just going to have a normal meal and be thankful. But then friends from Church called and asked if we would like a "plate." Turkey, stuffing, sweet potato casserole, buttered mashed potatoes, green beans with bacon and a buttered Hawaiian roll. dessert was cranberry sweet bread.
A roof over our heads with a toasty warm room and great friends. Who has it better than us?

I am way too stuffed - in pain actually. Everyone said it was the best turkey they ever tasted, everything else was excellent, and my gravy was flat out drinkable.

Now it’s time for a gummy and a pillow.

Forgot that my wife is also making her pumpkin and sweet cream cheese pies. It’s a 30 year tradition.

Sounds like something I’ve never heard of, but always wanted to try.

I’ll have to look this up

That Gran Marnie injection has me curious.

I have an injector, but never use it.
Maybe I need to revisit it for large cuts.

I use mine quite a bit. Mostly for whole chickens and turkeys but I’ve injected rendered fat into briskets, rib roasts, and pork loins. I’ve also used it to do a quick flavor up on chicken thighs and breasts.

Kinda fun to play around with.

I’ve thought about rendered fat with the injector, but I never would have thought alcohol would pair well.

I’m going to try it on my next chicken.

You need to cook off the alcohol. I’ve tried it otherwise and it comes off bitter - just not good.

That thing probably looks like a rawlings catcher mitt by now.
