    Glazed Turkey With Peach-Ginger Sauce


    Source of Recipe


    Original recipe by Annacia; modified by BL Olson

    Recipe Introduction


    A unique tangy and spicy chunky peach sauce perfectly complements traditional glazed meat for an outstanding holiday meal. Vary the amount of ginger and hot pepper to satisfy your own tastes. The Peach-Ginger sauce can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving.

    List of Ingredients




    1 (10 lb) fully-cooked bone in smoked turkey parts
    2 teaspoons whole cloves
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    2 tablespoons brown mustard
    1/2 cup packed brown sugar
    1/4 cup packed brown sugar
    2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
    1 cup peach nectar
    1 cup peach preserves
    5 cups unsweetened frozen peach slices
    2 teaspoons minced fresh gingerroot
    1 hot cherry pepper, seeded and minced
    1 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks

    Recipe



    1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

    2. Use a serrated knife to score the turkey in a diamond pattern.

    3. Press whole cloves into the meat and place on a roasting rack in a roasting pan.

    4. Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours in the preheated oven, or until the internal temperature has reached 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).

    5. Cover with aluminum foil if the meat starts to look dry.

    6. While this baking, mix together the cinnamon, mustard and 1/2 cup of brown sugar in a cup or small bowl.

    7. Set aside.

    8. In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together the remaining brown sugar, cider vinegar, peach nectar and peach preserves.

    9. Bring to a boil and then stir in the sliced peaches, ginger, cherry pepper and the cinnamon stick.

    10. Simmer until the peaches are tender and the sauce has thickened, 25 to 30 minutes.

    11. Remove the meat from the oven and brush liberally with the mustard glaze.

    12. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and return the meat to the oven, uncovered.

    13. Bake for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, or until glaze is bubbly.

    14. Allow the meat to rest for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.

    Serve with hot Peach-Ginger sauce.

    BL's Notes: Yes, this used to be for a (sssssh) ham, but I made it one year with some smoked turkey drumsticks and so every once in a while my family requests it again. My eldest son suggested we do it with a whole smoked turkey but when he saw that a 10 lb turkey would run about $75 after smoking, he decided that was not a good idea - lol
