12 Pound Turkey
1 Can German Schwarzbier
1/2 C. (1 Stick) Butter
1/2 C. Molasses

Pepper

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 250˚F.
Mix equal parts salt and pepper in a bowl and rub over thawed turkey, ensuring full, but not excessive coverage. Place the turkey in the oven and cook for one hour.
While turkey is roasting, add beer, molasses, coconut oil, and Yellowbird Habanero Condiment to a saucepan over medium heat and stir until fully combined. Remove from heat.
