The Ingredients You'll Need
For the Turkey
1 whole turkey (12-15 pounds)
1 stick of butter, softened
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon dried sage
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Buffalo Glaze
1/2 cup hot sauce
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup butter
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Turkey
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Rinse the turkey and pat it dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, sage, rosemary, and salt and pepper. Rub the butter mixture all over the turkey, making sure to get it under the skin as well. Place the turkey in a roasting pan and cover with foil.
2. Cook the Turkey
Roast the turkey in the oven for about 2-2 1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the skin to crisp up.
3. Make the Buffalo Glaze
In a small saucepan, combine the hot sauce, honey, butter, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook over medium heat until the butter is melted and the ingredients are well combined.
4. Glaze the Turkey
Once the turkey is fully cooked, remove it from the oven and brush the buffalo glaze all over the turkey, making sure to cover the entire surface. Return the turkey to the oven for an additional 10 minutes, or until the glaze is sticky and caramelized.
Final Touches
Let the turkey rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make for a more tender and flavorful turkey. Serve with your favorite Thanksgiving sides and enjoy!
This Thanksgiving buffalo recipe is a delicious twist on the traditional Thanksgiving turkey. The combination of spicy buffalo flavors with the classic Thanksgiving herbs and spices is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Plus, the glaze adds a beautiful caramelized finish to the turkey.
