Maple glaze for your birds

In a previos post I posted some pics of boneless breasts that we do and made mention that one batch was not glossy/shiny as the other pics I posted. I stated that the reason was because the birds had not been glazed. LOTS of people have asked for the glaze. I am ALWAYS willing to help others and share my thoughts. The turkeys are a bit of a touchy thing for us as they are somewhat of a proprietary thing for us. BUT.....I don't think that giving out this little bit of info will hurt anything---no matter what the wife thinks.
The maple glaze is SIMPLE. It really won't make a large impact on the flavor unless you get creative(hint, hint)but, it will help your skins and appearance of the birds.
1 to 2 parts butter to 1 part maple syrup. (to taste) That's it! Melt butter and mix in syrup. Brush/spray birds liberally with mixture about 15 minutes before you take them off the cooker. There it is. It is very easy. It will help crisp skins and make beautiful, shiny birds.
As always.....
I hope this helps!

P.S. If you are doing it to crisp the skin then brush/spray birds 30-45 minutes before you pull them---it will make a candied type shell....similar to a candied apple. Use 1 to 1 for this.

Here are some pics.
