    1. Inject turkey in the upper and lower breast and each thigh with an injector full of mixture of 2/3 blonde ale and 1/3 garlic infused oil.
    2. Brush entire bird with butter (helps to brown the skin) and season with salt and pepper. Add salt and pepper to the inside of the bird as well.
    3. Stuff turkey with lemons (halved), garlic cloves and fresh herbs.
    4. Tie up the turkey at the wings, thighs and legs.
    5. Add three cans of turkey or chicken broth and the leftover butter to the basting pan.
    6. Cover with foil and roast at 325°F for 15 minutes per pound.
    7. Baste turkey every 15 - 20 minutes while cooking.
    8. Uncover for the last 30 minutes of roasting to ensure a nicely browned skin.

    I usually go for red onions over white or yellow for these thin, crispy, beer-battered onion rings. I love the extra sweet-pungent wallop of acid that red onions carry. I also find that they hold their form better when heated, becoming tender-crisp instead of watery or limp. Naturally, keep some extra chilled pilsner or helles on hand for serving alongside.

The brown ale adds a level of bitter, yeast, and caramel malt flavors that brings the cheddar cheese alive and beautifully unites it with the butternut squash. This dish is the perfect accompaniment to your holiday dinner spread or a fun, standalone weeknight dinner.
