Thanksgiving Turkey Covered in Maple Butter | Chef Jean-Pierre

[@arisurec]

One of the things I absolutely adore about Chef Jean-Pierre is him making mistakes. When he does that he removes the feeling of being pressured on doing everything perfectly from the viewer. He creates such a comfortable atmosphere in his videos and personally, that is greatly appreciated.

[@ChefJeanPierre]

Thank you!!! 😊

[@patriciaworrell466]

Can’t agree more …. I have become more tolerant of my own cooking mishaps because of chef Jean-Pierre …. He has taught me not only how to cook ; but even better , how to laugh at myself…. Love him❤

[@wespeakforthetrees]

Chef I know we aren't supposed to stuff the turkey anymore but I wish you would do an old school Thanksgiving turkey with real stuffing like I remember from my childhood. Stuffing was the best part and doing it outside the turkey just isn't the same. If you do it that way you really can't call it stuffing because it isn't. If anybody else here is as old as me and agrees please lobby Chef to show us the old school turkey stuffing method. It was Amazing!

[@patrickmoriarty3038]

There is a fix for that. You can enhance the dressing in a pan outside of the bird by overlaying slightly roasted (cooked) turkey parts on the dressing and foil it. Cook in the oven covered until the temp comes up to 165. That way you get drippings off the meat parts, giblets too if you like. I've done that for years with left-over dressing that couldn't fit into the bird.

[@jimr5703]

JP starts 'kneeding' the butter and my brain says, "You can smell the maple and butter...", and I could. I've made a few like this in Maine. It's WONDERFUL.

The best part about this channel is you don't edit to make everything perfect. The butter wasn't warm enough, but we got to see the texture of the butter that's not warm enough and warm just right. It's actually very helpful for some of us who are a little neurotic in the kitchen.

[@dbeazrn3934]

I’m absolutely in love with this channel & am head-over-heels in love with Chef John-Pierre….not with the 🦃 because the ONLY warm spice that I like, and in minuscule amounts, is cinnamon & I certainly am not going any where near maple syrup on anything except for pancakes & French toast - LMBO!! But, I’m learning so, so much about dishes, flavors that my husband & family would thoroughly enjoy. I alsolove that he doesn’t edit his mistakes & gives a honest presentation on how to prepare each dish & what might go wrong during the preparations. My Mom told me a funny story about a ham she cooked for Christmas. I was around 4 years old & while she was busy feeding my younger brother in his high chair, I had all of a sudden disappeared from the table. After asking my clueless dad, my older brother & sister if they had even noticed my disappearance, she heard a small step stool being dragged across the kitchen floor & running water from the kitchen faucet. When she walked into the kitchen, she found me lying on the counter with all of my body, except for my legs/feet, hanging over into the sink. I was holding the dish soap - upside down - with my little hands trying to pour it onto my piece of ham which was laying underneath the running water. When she asked me what in the world would possess me to go through all of that trouble to thoroughly wash my piece of ham, I told her that I didn’t like the “bad tooth taste” & was hoping to wash it off. My mom & dad were laughing hysterically when they figured it that I was referring to CLOVE spice. She still used cloves & pineapples on her baked ham, but she would cut 1/4 off of the end & would bake it first…just for me & for other guests (who didn’t like the “bad tooth taste” )who might have joined us as well. I can’t tell the story as well as she could, as she would start laughing again. My sweet Mama was a simple cook & there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. I’d put her Thanksgiving meals (Turkey, cornbread & sage dressing, biscuit dumplings, gravy from the Turkey drippings (NEVER added the gizzard, neck, etc. - again, because the consistency would humbly & seriously make me gag. The same reaction to liver, etc.) Her biscuits were LEGEND!!! Naturally she’d never measure a single ingredient. Gosh - I still miss her so horribly much. 😢😢😢 I’m married to a former chef - who can cook - have mercy - my Hubs can cook!!!! However, his feelings can be a tiny bit fragile even after 20 years. Sadly, he married a sweet country girl with a naive & picky palate. I guess he married me for my kind heart - thank goodness. At the time, that was about all I had going for me - FOTFLMBO!!!!! I cannot help it. I like what I like & there are some new foods/flavors that I will try. I think that it’s mainly related to the smell & consistency of the food. So sorry for the long post. This just triggered such happy memories of my Mama & her challenges of having a picky eater for a daughter. May God richly bless each & everyone of you ALL!! ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️ MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

@@ChefJeanPierre hey chef love the recipe aside from you stuffing the turkey it doesn't add flavor like most think and it will dry out the exterior breast meat because it cooks fast than interior breast. You want the cavity to have heat going into it to cook it as fast as possible. If you want the flavor that you get from stuffing add the stuff to the roasting pan. And a brine does make a difference.

Chef Jean-Pierre like always a great demonstration and presentation of Turkey. We used to cook hundreds of portions for banquets at the Hotels I was working at. We boned and rolled the legs, tied them then with herbs and butter and wrapped in tin foil. Wrapped also the Breasts and done the same way with the tin foil. Then put in the rational oven on " over-night roasting programme". Then once cooked let them go cold overnight, then slicing them the following day. Reheating at oven steam temperature of 80c. Keep on doing a great job 🙂

[@Garth2011]

Nice method. One thing I see often is people trying to slice meats with serrated blades which tears the fiber vs. cut them clean. Another thing I notice is folks will try to use a chefs knife to slice up their turkey which makes it more difficult. The boning knife is for disassembly of the breast, turkey parts and the smaller parts such as the wings, thighs and legs. The slicing knife as shown here, is for slicing the breast meat into plate sized portions. And of course, the knifes used need to be super sharp which makes everything easier.

Just made a turkey this morning, our standard way to butter the turkey is take 3/4 of a package of maple bacon and wrap it all around the bird. We make homemade stuffing and that does have lots of butter in it along with celery, onions, breadcrumbs and fresh herbs. after the first 2 hours I baste it then once every hour. The bacon kind of auto bastes it the whole time as well. We use a rectangular roasting pan with a lid and cook for the last 15-20 minutes with the lid off the brown it. Will have to try this recipe though, off to go find your gravy.
