Jerk Turkey


Thanksgiving is coming up in a few days.. And everyone is getting ready to cook their Turkey's and pull out the Old recipes. I found a recipe for Jerk Turkey and thought I would post it here. Now, remember that jerk seasoning is spicy and if you like spicy foods then this would be great for you to try.


Preparation Time: 30 - 45 minutesCooking/Baking Time: 3 1/2-4 hours Serves/Yields: 6-8

INGREDIENTS 12 lbs. turkey, remove giblets 3 Tbsps. jerk seasoning
1/2 cup soya sauce 2 Tbsps. lemon juice 1 Tbsp. olive oil 2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 cup chopped parsley 1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup chopped onions, eskallion & thyme or as needed.

METHOD: Wash Turkey with some lemon/lime. This will remove the raw taste or smell.
Pat dry turkey inside out. Combine and add the jerk seasoning, soya sauce, garlic, parsley, salt, onions, eskallion & thyme to rub over turkey inside and out, thoroughly. Stuff turkey with your choice of stuffings. Mix the lemon juice with the olive oil and brush over the turkey. Place the turkey in a baking dish and cover with aluminium foil. Bake for 30 minutes then, reduce the temperature to 325°F /160°C and bake for a further 3 1/2 hours. Remove the aluminium foil, about 30 minutes before total cooking time. Turkey is ready when golden brown. Good Luck and Enjoy!
