Put your Big Green Egg to work this holiday season
There’s one thing that every holiday celebration has, without fail.
Food.
Now, at your holiday celebrations you could easily go traditional, with an oven roasted ham or turkey, sweet potatoes, stuffing – you know the drill. Or, you could try something different this year. Try some of these recipes – unique twists on traditional favorites and creative new flavors – all prepared on your Big Green Egg.
Brined Turkey
If you’ve never brined a turkey, you’re in for a treat. Brined turkey turns out incredibly moist. Prepared on the Big Green Egg, it also has a delicious, smoky flavor you’re gonna love.
Injected Turkey Breasts
Injected turkey (whole or breast), offers unique flavor. Try Cajun or Lemon and Herb. Or, make two turkey breasts, and try both!
Candied Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are always a staple on a holiday table. With this recipe, they turn out sweet, caramelized – and delicious.
Plank-Roasted Pears
Here’s something new for your holiday table. Grilled on cedar or alder planks over charcoal, these pears are delicious as an appetizer, with a salad, or even as a desert.
Rosemary Yeast Rolls
No holiday meal is complete without rolls. Bake these on your Big Green Egg using the Deep Dish Baking Stone.
Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie
Brown sugar. Pecans. Dark chocolate. And yes, bourbon. It’s perfect after a holiday meal, but honestly? You’re going to want to make this a whole lot more often than that.
Holiday Sugar Cookies
We don’t know about your house, but at ours, it’s just not the holidays without a great big plate of sugar cookies. Use your favorite sugar cookie dough, but bake the cookies using your Big Green Egg Baking Stone!
The leftovers …
Let’s be honest. When you make a turkey, there are almost always leftovers. You can put your Big Green Egg to work then, too.
BBQ Chicken Soup
Yes, the recipe calls for chicken, but it’s just as good with leftover turkey.
Pizza with Smoked Chicken and Crema
Another easy turkey-for-chicken swap. To make this recipe even easier, use a frozen pizza dough. It’ll still be delicious.
