Recipe For Grilled Turkey

  

This is what I served for the 4th of July.

And yes, I am actually that far behind on some of my posts.

Anyway, you know I mentioned that 25 pound turkey in my freezer? This was it’s smaller sidekick. Weighing in at 14 pounds, it was the perfect size for the grill.

I simply cut the turkey up like a chicken. Who knew, right? Can I tell you that it’s a good thing we live in Florida because I may be making the Thanksgiving bird this way, too! Actually, as much as I’d like to, there would be a full on mutiny if I did that, but I can think about it!! This bird was so moist and delicious. Paired with the smokey mustard potato salad I made, I think the meal was one of my better summer combos. (Should I tell you that I just ordered 10 bottles of Saucy Mama’s Smokey Garlic Mustard? I had a coupon code. And free shipping. Does that make me weird?)

I used my copycat KFC 11 herbs and spices mix as the rub. That stuff is not just for fried chicken.
