How to Make Bbq Turkey
- Preheat grill to 325°F (160°C) for indirect medium heat.
- In a bowl, combine 4 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 tablespoon chili powder, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter. Mix well.
- Rinse the turkey inside and out and pat it dry with paper towels.
- Carefully loosen the skin of the turkey breast and legs.
- Generously smear the butter mixture under the skin and all over the turkey.
- Quarter 2 oranges and insert them into the turkey cavity.
- In a roasting pan, combine 2 cups chicken broth, 1 large chopped onion, and 1 large chopped carrot.
- Place the turkey on a roasting rack in the prepared pan.
- Grill over indirect medium heat for approximately 3 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C). Baste the turkey with pan juices every 30 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove the turkey from the grill and let it rest for at least 30 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bird.
