8 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 tablespoon Chopped fresh ginger
3 Cloves garlic
2 Shallots; chopped
½ cup Apple cider
½ cup Brandy
½ cup Dry sherry
2 teaspoons Chopped fresh thyme
1 cup Chicken or turkey stock
Sweet soy sauce
1 Turkey; (15-pound)
Kosher salt
Freshly cracked black pepper

Directions

APPLE-BRANDY GLAZE

To make the glaze, in a saucepan over high heat combine the garlic, ginger, shallots, cider, brandy, and sherry and reduce until about ½ cup of liquid remains. Add the thyme and stock and reduce again until about ½ cup remains. Season to taste with sweet soy sauce and set aside.

Place the turkey on a rack fitted in a roasting pan, and season well with salt and pepper. Roast the turkey in a standard or convection oven at 300ø for about 2 hours, then brush it with the glaze. Continue to roast the turkey, brushing on additional glaze every 20 to 30 minutes, until the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 155ø, about 5 hours total cooking time.
