Ingredients

  • 1 turkey (I used an 18 lb turkey)
  • 1/2 yellow onion
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tbsp black pepper
  • 3 tbsp fresh chopped rosemary
  • 1 tsp dried ginger
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup EVOO

Steps

  1. Thaw your turkey base on the weight of your turkey in pounds. You can Google this! I thawed mine a week in advance.
  2. Remove any plastic and organs from the chest cavity.
  3. Throw all ingredients in a food processor to create a marinade.
  4. Use a brush to paint the turkey with half of the marinade (or enough to coat the whole turkey with a thin layer). Save the other half for later. Cover the turkey and place in the fridge for a day.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F
  6. Bake your turkey covered for 2 hours. After 2 hours, add the remaining marinade to the turkey and recover. Bake for another 2 hours.
  7. Uncover your turkey and bake without foil for the last 30 mins to allow to brown and get crispy!
  8. Let the turkey sit for about 20-30 minutes before cutting to allow the meat to settle.
  9. Enjoy!!
