"Thanksgiving at The Beer Thrillers household usually means one thing: yes, the kids are arguing over who gets the wishbone, the pies are cooling on the counter, and the Macy's parade is droning in the background - but most importantly, a Pennsylvania craft beer is getting cracked and poured into whatever dish I'm cooking. Because if you're not using local beer in your holiday feast... what are you doing?"
"This year, we're going with a full-on PA-powered centerpiece: a Maple-Brown Ale Glazed Turkey, roasted low and slow, basted in a malty, caramel-rich glaze made with one of Pennsylvania's best fall beers: Troegs' Troegenator Doppelbock or Victory's Festbier (both work beautifully and are easy to find statewide). The result is a turkey that's juicy, glossy, sweet, savory, and unapologetically Pennsylvanian."
Thanksgiving centers on a Maple-Brown Ale Glazed Turkey roasted low and slow and basted with a malty, caramel-rich glaze made from Pennsylvania craft beer and maple. Troegs Troegenator Doppelbock and Victory Festbier are recommended primary beers; Weyerbacher Merry Monks is offered as a Belgian-fruity alternative. Seasoning includes salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, thyme, sage, and olive oil or butter. Prep steps include removing giblets, patting the turkey dry, rubbing with fat and the seasoning blend, then roasting while periodically glazing. The finished turkey is juicy, glossy, sweet, savory, and unapologetically Pennsylvanian, with suggested Pennsylvania beer pairings for sides.
