Bubbys Turkey Meatloaf Dave Lieberman Recipes

BAY AND LEMON BRINED TURKEY

Steps:

• Combine all brine ingredients in a container or pot large enough to hold the turkey. Make sure all the sugar and salt have been fully dissolved. Add the turkey and refrigerate about 6 hours or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove turkey from brine and transfer to a roasting pan with a rack. Stuff turkey with the lemon halves, bay leaves, and cinnamon sticks used in the brine. Cook turkey for about 3 1/2 hours, basting every 40 minutes or so. If any part of the turkey gets too brown towards the end of cooking, shield with pieces of tin foil. When the turkey is done, juices should run clear from the breast and the legs should pull away from the bird easily. Remove from the heat and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.

BUBBY'S TURKEY MEATLOAF (DAVE LIEBERMAN)

Steps:

• Meatloaf:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the meatloaf and work together completely by hand until all ingredients are evenly distributed and the mixture is uniform. Place meat mixture into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and shape into a loaf about 11 inches long and 4 inches wide. It is important to form it like this so that it cooks evenly throughout. The loaf should be in the middle of the pan with room on both sides for the sauce to pool.
• Red Pepper Sauce:
• Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Cover the meatloaf with the sauce and allow excess sauce to pool around the meatloaf. Cover pan with aluminum foil but avoid contact with meat loaf by leaving at least a couple inches of space between the top of the meatloaf and the foil. Bake for 45 minutes, then uncover and bake 45 minutes longer. Let rest for 15 minutes before cutting and serving.

BACON-ROSEMARY-RED BLISS HASH

Steps:

• Put potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by at least 3 inches. Add salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer potatoes until fork tender, about 25 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and return to pot to cool slightly. Roughly smash potatoes in pot with a masher or a large fork.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the bacon and cook until bacon is crispy and has given up most of its fat. Lower the heat to medium-high, add the rosemary and season with salt and pepper. Make sure bacon and rosemary are evenly distributed in the pan then add the potatoes.
• Pat down with a spatula so the potatoes are in an even layer. Season the top of the potatoes with salt and pepper.
• Cook until a nice brown crust has formed on the bottom, about 5 to 7 minutes. Use the spatula to flip the potatoes, cook until brown on the other side, about 5 minutes.
