Recipes behind the cut-- Maple Bourbon Glaze and Sausage Cakes.
Maple Bourbon Glaze
1 cup bourbon (I used 2/3 cup Jack Daniels, as that's all I had)
2/3 cup maple syrup
2/3 cup ketchup
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons brown sugar (packed)
This made far more than enough for our 14 pound turkey; in fact we're going to try it on pork chops today. The recipe called for glazing the turkey, which gave it a lovely color but no real flavor; stirring some into gravy, which was interesting but I won't bother doing it again; and serving on the side as a dipping sauce, which was heavenly.
Eileen's Sausage Cakes
1 pound bulk sausage
3/4 cup milk
1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
1 egg
1 tsp minced onion
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons horseradish
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
Mix, pack into muffin cups, bake at 350 about 45 minutes. (Mom's recipe said one hour, but hers generally resembled hockey pucks a bit too closely. Mom used fresh homegrown horseradish and hot mustard; mine, made with mild mustard and purchased horseradish, were far too mild to please her, but were still pretty tasty.)
