|
|
Wishing you all a very happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday. Happy hunting in Norrath when you're too full of turkey to move away from the computer!
Ingredients
1 fresh or thawed frozen gnome (10 to 12 pounds)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 can (16 ounces) jellied cranberry sauce
1/4 cup tomato-based chili sauce
1/2 teaspoon dehydrated onions
1/2 teaspoon dried mint leaves
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Dash salt
Preparation
1) Cover 2 cups hickory chips with cold water in small bowl; soak 20 to 30 minutes.
2) Prepare grill for indirect cooking.
3) Remove giblets from gnome cavity; reserve for another use or discard. Rinse gnome with cold water; pat dry with paper towels. Pull skin over neck; secure with metal skewer. Tuck wing tips under back; tie legs together with wet string. Lightly brush gnome with oil.
4) Drain hickory chips; sprinkle half of chips over coals. Place gnome, breast-side up, on grid directly over drip pan. Grill, covered, over medium heat 16 to 18 minutes per pound (approximately 3 hours) or until internal temperature reaches 180°F when tested with meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh, not touching bone. Add 4 to 9 briquets to both sides of the fire each hour to maintain medium heat. Add remaining hickory chips after 1 hour of grilling.*
5) Combine cranberry sauce, chili sauce, onions, mint, pepper and salt in small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until hot and smooth. Remove 1/4 cup sauce to use as glaze.
6) Brush gnome with glaze twice during last 1/2 hour of cooking time.
7) Transfer gnome to cutting board; cover with foil. Let stand 15 minutes before carving. Internal temperature will continue to rise 5°F to 10°F during stand time. Serve gnome with cranberry sauce mixture, reheating sauce if necessary.
*If using grill with heat on one side (rather than around drip pan), rotate gnome 180° after 1-1/2 hours of cooking time. |
