Grilled Turkey Po Boy Recipes

THE GREATEST GRILLED TURKEY

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill for indirect medium-high heat.
• Rinse turkey and pat dry. Turn wings back to hold neck skin in place. Return legs to tucked position. Brush turkey with oil. Season inside and out with Italian seasonings, salt, and pepper.
• Place turkey, breast side up, on a metal grate inside a large roasting pan. Arrange pan on the prepared grill. Grill 2 to 3 hours, to an internal thigh temperature of 180 degrees F (85 degrees C). Remove turkey from grill and let stand 15 minutes before carving.

GRILLED TURKEY

Steps:

• Dissolve the salt and sugar in 2 gallons cold water in a large (at least 16 quart) stockpot or a clean bucket. (You can also add fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme or bay leaf, or aromatics like onions and garlic.) Add the turkey, cover and refrigerate, or set in a very cold place (that stays somewhere between 32 to 40 degrees F) for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Remove the turkey from the brine 1 hour before grilling. Rinse well under cold water and pat dry to remove the salt.
• Prepare a charcoal grill for indirect grilling. The temperature inside the grill should be 350 degrees F.
• Place the turkey on the grill, cover and grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thigh registers 175 degrees F, 2 hours 15 minutes to 2 1/2 hours. Let the turkey rest 1 hour before carving.

GRILLED SHRIMP PO' BOY

Steps:

• Arrange about 4 shrimp on each skewer and add to a 13 by 9-inch casserole dish.
• Add the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, smoked paprika, cayenne, Worcestershire, hot sauce, salt and pepper, to taste, to a measuring cup. Whisk well and pour over the shrimp in the casserole. Cover the dish and let the shrimp marinate in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Grill the shrimp skewers over medium-high heat for about 4 minutes total, flipping once halfway through. Add the baguette to the grill and toast.
• Remove the shrimp from the grill and add to the butter sauce, discarding the skewers. Toss to coat the shrimp in the Butter Sauce.
• Spread both sides of bread with the Sweet Pickle Mayonnaise and top evenly with the shrimp, shredded lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Slice the baguette in fourths, if desired, and serve immediately.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan on the grill grates. Add the lemon juice, hot sauce and Worcestershire. Stir together with a wooden spoon until well mixed. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

GRILLED SHRIMP PO' BOY WITH PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• For the quick pickled green tomatoes: Combine the vinegar, sugar, pickling spices and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook until the sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Keep warm.
• Place the tomatoes in a 1-quart sterilized glass jar. Pour the vinegar mixture over the tomatoes and seal the lid. Refrigerate until ready to serve. (These can be enjoyed right away but are best refrigerated overnight.)
• For the spicy lemon-dill aioli: Stir together the mayonnaise, onion, House Seasoning, dill, lemon zest and juice, hot sauce and sugar in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the grilled shrimp: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the shrimp with the House Seasoning. Grill until the shrimp are cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes on each side.
• To serve, spread the desired amount of spicy lemon-dill aioli on the rolls. Top evenly with the grilled shrimp, shredded lettuce and coarsely chopped pickled green tomatoes.
• Stir together all the garlic and onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
