How to make it
- Place in a large container,with high walls, the hot water,bourbon...the only cup left...cabin tin pure maple syrup,salt,layers of onion...divided,modest strips of orange,bay leaves,peppercorns,cloves...and I reckon that's it,now just stir about,mix er' up,then add the ice.
- Remove any innards from the turkey,give it a bath under cold running water,have it take a dive in the gobbledygook,and place in a cold climate overnight.
- Next day,drain,pat dry,fold the wingtips behind the back.
- OK...Here comes the tie down!
- Cause the proof is in the lassoing!
- Take your lariat and the one end that does not have the honda on it,pass it through to make a loop...Now,practice makes perfect...so,here goes.Move your wrist in a counterclockwise direction and swing it above your head,focus one area,avoid catchin' other body parts in the lasso...that is called 'trash in the loop'
- Ok...Now your ready for action...enter the box,mount your horse,prime the lariat with the loop loose and the other end tied to your saddle horn,clench the piggin' string firmly in your teeth,nod your head to signal the release and start the clock...Charge into fifth gear,rope that turkey,leap off your horse,and it's a...throw down! Wrap the legs with the string with two loops and a knot...this would be called 'two wraps and a hooey' To signal that your work is done,throw your hands in the air,the clock stops...and this critter has six seconds to break free before you slap it with melted butter and bourbon,and apply some heat.
- Roast it at the correct temperature for about three hours...allow it to rest for about thirty minutes before you carve it up...then lay on the showy...sprigs fresh sage...thyme...orange...lady apples...kumquats...pomegranate.
- Now all that's left besides the sides and sweets,is the sauce.
- Take your hat off and set a spell.
- 'HAPPY THANKS GIVING'
