This turkey barbecue is the epitome of good eatin'. If you're accustomed to eating only cold cut or Thanksgiving turkey, you're sure to enjoy this recipe.
Ingredients
1 turkey (about 12 pounds)
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons steak sauce
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1 tablespoon pepper
2 to 3 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chicken broth
12 sandwich rolls, split
lettuce leaves and tomato slices, optional
Directions
Place turkey, breast side up, on a rack in a roasting pan. Combine the butter, Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce and seasonings; rub 3 tablespoons over turkey. Cover and refrigerate remaining butter mixture. Bake turkey, uncovered, at 325° for 3 to 3-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 180°, basting occasionally with pan drippings.
Remove turkey; pour drippings into a saucepan. When turkey is cool enough to handle, remove meat from the bones. Shred turkey and return to the roasting pan. Add broth and remaining butter mixture to the drippings; bring to a rolling boil. Pour over shredded turkey.
Cover and bake at 325° for 25-30 minutes or until heated through. Serve on rolls. Add lettuce and tomato if desired.
