I hope these grilled turkey recipes make you very happy. Turkey is one of the most misunderstood meats in all of the culinary world. We’ve all had it, we’ve probably even loved it on Thanksgiving all slathered up in gravy and mashed potatoes, but we all have to admit that most turkey we eat alone is dried out and flavorless.
Rescue your taste buds! Turkey doesn’t have to be like that! Even grilling turkey, which may have a tendency to dry it out, doesn’t have to result in dry, hard, leathery turkey.
So how do you avoid dried out, flavorless turkey? Easy, one simple solution… brining! Both the turkey drumsticks and whole brined-turkey below use a brine solution to infuse and seal in juices and flavor. After a good brining, turkey tastes better, its more tender and it stays juicier, even if you over cook it a little. So try it out next time you plan to grill… your taste buds will thank you!
