List of Ingredients
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon snipped fresh marjoram or 1 teaspoon dried marjoram,
crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon finely shredded orange peel
1 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pound boneless turkey roast
2 tablespoons butter, melted Recipe
1. In a small bowl combine garlic, marjoram, salt, and pepper; set
aside. For glaze, in a small saucepan stir together the orange juice and
cornstarch; add half of the seasoning mixture. Cook and stir over medium
heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir in
maple syrup and orange peel; set aside.
2. Brush the turkey roast with melted butter and rub with remaining
seasoning mixture. Insert a meat thermometer near the center of the
roast.
3. For a charcoal grill, arrange medium-hot coals around a drip pan.
Test for medium heat above the pan. Place the turkey roast directly on
the grill rack over the pan. Cover; grill for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until
thermometer registers 165F. Add coals to maintain heat every 30 minutes.
Brush with glaze the last 30 minutes of grilling. Remove meat from
grill. Cover with foil; let stand for 15 minutes before carving. (The
meat's temperature will rise 5F during standing.) Bring any remaining
glaze to boiling; pass with turkey. (For a gas grill, preheat grill.
Reduce heat to medium. Adjust for indirect cooking. Grill as above.)
Serves 10 to 12.
