Honey glazed spatchcock turkey

Directions

1. Start by making the seasoning mix.

2. Next, spatchcock the turkey and lift the skin of the meat.
3. Make the butter by mixing everything together and then rub 90% of it under the skin, all over the bird. Rub the remaining 10% over the top of the skin.
4. Place the turkey onto a tray with a rack and season the turkey well. Place it in the fridge uncovered for 1-24 hours. Remove the turkey from the fridge and set your oven at 240°c.
5. Make the glaze by placing all the glaze ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Let this simmer for 5-10 minutes and then take off the heat.
6. Pour 1-2 cups of water into the roasting tray and roast the bird at 240°c.
7. After 45 minutes in the oven, start glazing the bird every 10 minutes until all the glaze is used up.
8. Pull the bird out of the oven when the temperature reaches 66°c at the thickest part of the breast.

9. Rest the bird for at least 40 minutes before carving.
