How you can grill up great meals and tasty dishes with all your favourite turkey cuts:
1. Make sure to prep your grill – clean and oil the grates before you begin.
2. Learn to use indirect and direct heat zones. Direct heat zones are well suited for quick grilling and searing for turkey sausages, turkey thighs and turkey breast tenders, while indirect heat zones are perfect for low and slow cooking turkey breast roasts and drumsticks.
3. Leave the lid up to avoid flare-ups when searing or cooking on high heat, but keep the lid closed for longer cooking times over low or indirect heat.
4. Keep salt out of your turkey rubs or marinades and season with salt during grilling to avoid drying out the surface of your meat.
5. Baste your cuts during cooking and finish with any sauces in the last few minutes of cooking to avoid burning.
6. Use marinades, rubs and brines for a big flavour boost before your turkey hits the grill.
7. Consider factors such as bone-in or boneless, the power of your grill and the size of your cut when establishing grill times.
8. Always let your turkey cuts rest for 10-20 minutes (depending on size) before serving
to ensure maximum juiciness.
9. To ensure a good sear, make sure your meat is dry and your grill is hot.
10. Pick the right cut for your needs. In a hurry? Choose cuts like sausage, strips, cubes, kabobs and cutlets. Feeding a group or have more time on your hands? Choose a breast roast, drumsticks or a half turkey.
