Brown Sugar Rubbed Turkey Breast Recipes

BBQ TURKEY BREAST WITH A BROWN SUGAR RUB AND BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the salt, brown sugar, chili powder and fresh ground pepper.
• Separate the fillet from the turkey breast. It should remove easily. We do this for ease of BBQ'ing.
• Generously rub the tops of both the turkey breast and the fillet with the rub. (as show in the photo above)
• Preheat your barbecue to high, then, turn down the heat to low/medium.
• Add your turkey and roast over the low/medium heat for approximately 20 minutes, (10 minutes on each side), or until the internal temperature measures 165 degrees. Note: The fillet will take less time to roast because it is smaller. It will likely be done in half the time. Just check it by temperature for doneness.
• In the last few minutes, coat the top of the turkey with your favourite BBQ sauce. We like ours to be smothered!
• When the turkey is done, remove from heat and let rest under tin foil for a couple of minutes.
• When it is time to serve the turkey, cut the turkey into 3/4 inch slices, cut against the grain.
• Serve with cobs of corn, bread and a green vegetable!
• Enjoy!

TURKEY WITH BROWN-SUGAR GLAZE

Steps:

• Let turkey sit at room temperature 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Place neck, giblets, carrots, celery, and onion in a heavy-bottomed metal roasting pan. Set a roasting rack over vegetables and coat with cooking spray.
• Tuck wing tips underneath body of turkey. Tie legs together with kitchen twine. Rub turkey all over with 2 tablespoons butter; season with salt and pepper. Place turkey on rack in pan; roast on bottom oven rack until golden brown, 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Add 2 cups water to pan; roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of a thigh reads 125 degrees, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring vinegar, brown sugar, and orange juice to a boil over high, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is syrupy, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in 2 tablespoons butter and orange zest.
• When thermometer reads 125 degrees, brush turkey with glaze. Rotate pan and roast, brushing turkey with remaining glaze every 15 minutes, until thermometer inserted in the thickest part of a thigh reads 165 degrees, 30 to 45 minutes (tent turkey with foil, if browning too quickly). Transfer turkey to a platter. Loosely tent with foil and let rest 30 minutes before carving. Reserve pan with drippings for Pan Gravy.
