ROAST TURKEY WITH GRAND MARNIER APRICOT STUFFING
Here's another good turkey and dressing recipe. DH loves stuffings and gobbles this one up. I've never really liked using the giblets (I think it's a mind thing, lol), but I am convinced that they really add a lot of flavor.

GRAND MARNIER TURKEY
Here's another turkey recipe that I have made in the past. I didn't actually use the cooking bag, but used a large roaster with a vent in the lid. I did need to add a little liquid to the bottom of the pan to deglaze the yummy parts that stuck to the pan. DH liked it which was surprising, because he is a true believer that a turkey isn't worth making if it isn't stuffed with a bread stuffing, lol.

BOURBON & ORANGE BRINED TURKEY RECIPE - (3.7/5)
Provided by ruhroh
Number Of Ingredients 17
Steps:
- MAKE THE BRINE: In a large stockpot or other container large enough to hold the turkey and brine, combine the water, bourbon, salt, brown sugar, orange wedges (squeeze each wedge to release the juice), bay leaves, peppercorns, and cinnamon stick. Stir to dissolve the salt and sugar. Add the turkey to the brine, breast-side down, weighting it with resealable plastic bags filled with ice or cold water. Refrigerate the turkey and brine for 24 hours. When ready to cook, drain the turkey and discard the brine. Blot the turkey dry with paper towels and knock off any solid bits of spices. Remove any large gobbets of fat at the front of the main cavity. Put the orange wedges and herbs in the main cavity. Tie the legs together with butcher's string and fold the wings behind the back. Combine the butter and Grand Marnier, if using, and coat the outside of the turkey. Start your grill, oven or roaster - set to 350°F. Roast the turkey until it is deeply browned, the skin is crisp, and the internal temperature of the thickest part of a thigh is 165°F when read on an instant-read meat thermometer. If deep frying - heat oil to 375°F. When lowering the turkey into the oil it is recommended to turn off the burner. Once turkey is fully submersed light the burner and cook maintaining 350°F oil temperature. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per pound. Internal temperature should be 165 to 170°F in the breast, 175 to 180°F in the thigh. Remove and let grease drain. Set on paper towel to rest for 15 minutes.
ROASTED PEPPER TURKEY WITH ORANGE LIQUEUR
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the neck and other organs from the turkey cavity and reserve to make stock at a later time. Rinse the turkey in the sink and let the water gush inside the cavity
- Mix all ingredients for the rub together with the Grand Marnier. Spread it over the outside of the turkey, reserving 1 tablespoon. Spoon the 1 tablespoon into the cavity of the turkey. Stuff the cavity with all of the seasoning ingredients.
- Set the turkey in a roasting pan and pour in the wine. Cover the turkey with foil and roast. After 2 hours, uncover turkey and baste with the cooking juices. Continue to baste turkey with the juices every 20 minutes for the next 1 1⁄2 hours, until it is done. Total roasting time should be 3 1⁄2 hours.
- Let the turkey cool for at least 15 minutes before carving.
SILVER PALATE GRAND MARNIER APRICOT STUFFING
I realize this is un-American, but I could run for President of Turkey Haters Anonymous. There's no ButterBall on my menu, but this recipe from Silver Palate is an annual tradition--the best un-stuffed stuffing ever! It goes along with the SP recipe for "Thanksgiving Potatoes" already on Zaar in many versions - potatoes mashed with butter, cream cheese & sour cream. With these two things on your plate, who needs the bird? THA'ers unite. I know you're out there.

Steps:
- Place the apricots and 1 cup of the Grand Marnier in a small saucepan. Heat to boiling. Remove from heat and set aside. (If you simply must, simmer the giblets in a small saucepan covered with water for 5 minutes. When cool, remove and finely dice, discarding the liquid.).
- Melt ½ cup of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the celery and onion and saute for 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In the same skillet, cook the sausage, crumbling it with a fork, until it's no longer pink. Remove from heat and add to the celery & onion mixture.
- Add the stuffing mix, apricots with the liquid, the almonds (and the optional giblets.) Stir to combine.
- Heat the remaining 1/2 cup butter and chicken stock just until the butter melts. Pour over the stuffing mixture and add the remaining 1/2 cup of Grand Marnier. Stir well to moisten the stuffing, adding the thyme, salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake stuffing in a large buttered casserole at 325 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
- If you insist, you'll have enough to stuff a 21-24 pound bird with a small extra casserole on the side.
- Note: I usually make just ½ recipe. The Grand Marnier is expensive. If not in your budget, you might substitute another orange flavored liqueur (even Southern Comfort works.).
