3) Place brochettes on an oiled grill set about 6 inches from coals.

Grill brochettes, turnming an moving occasionally and basting with reserved mariande, until bacon is well browned and turkey is cooked through, about 10 minutes. *KENTUCKY MARINADE* Process all ingredients in a blender of food processor until thoroughly combined.

Mariande can be stored in a covered jar in refrigerator for 3 days.
