Savory Grilled Turkey

Savory Grilled Turkey


Yield: 12

Ethnicity: American
 
Meal Type: Main Course, Entrée
 
Preparation Method: Grill
 
Product Type: Whole
 







1 (12 pound) WHOLE TURKEY
1 Cup unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 Cup cider vinegar
1/2 Cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon A.1. steak sauce
1 Teaspoon kosher salt
1 Teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 Teaspoon Louisiana-style hot sauce
 
  1. Remove giblets from turkey (discard or save for another use).
  2. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Prepare grill for indirect heat, using a drip pan in the center. Skewer turkey openings closed and tie drumsticks together.
  3. When the grill temperature has reached about 350 degrees F, place turkey on the grill rack, directly over the drip pan. Grill, covered, over indirect medium heat for 1 hour.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat. Set aside and cover 2/3 cup for serving.
  5. Continue to grill turkey 1-2 hours longer or until a meat thermometer reads 175 degrees F in the thigh, basting frequently with remaining sauce.
  6. Cover turkey and let stand for 15 minutes before carving. Serve with reserved sauce.
