Making a great tasting turkey is easy using our spatchcock method and smoking it over Bull Competition Blend Lump Charcoal using the Bison Grill. With all of the turkey floating around during the holidays it’s pretty easy to get turkeyed out. That’s why I love using leftover turkey and transforming it into something different then normal Thanksgiving fair. One of my favorite recipes to make use of my turkey leftovers is a turkey cauliflower risotto with grilled asparagus.
Smoked turkey has a lot of flavor and versatility and can be incorporated into a variety of dishes as a “leftover.” Here are my Top 5 favorite leftover turkey recipes!
