🦃(Thanksgiving) Farm Fact: Those "Candied Yams" you look forward to every Thanksgiving? They're almost certainly NOT yams!

In the US, the orange-fleshed vegetable you use for your sweet casserole is a Sweet Potato. True yams are a completely different, starchy tuber imported from Africa and Asia—they've got rough, bark-like skin and are much drier and less sweet than your holiday favorite. The name "yam" just stuck thanks to old-time marketing! 🍠

P.S. For a sweet potato dish that's practically dessert (and an amazing side), check out our recipe for Candied Yams: [https://hubs.la/Q03W6j220]

⚠️ WARNING: This side dish is practically dessert! ⚠️

Introducing the Sweetest Sweet Potatoes with Marshmallows (aka Candied Yams). This recipe takes the classic holiday side and makes it unforgettable with a brown-sugar, maple, and cinnamon glaze, finished with gooey, golden marshmallows.

INGREDIENTS:
6 Yams
½ c. Unsalted Butter
½ tsp Redmond Real Salt
¾ c. Brown Sugar
¼ c. Maple Syrup
½ tsp Ground Cinnamon
2 c. Miniature Marshmallows

DIRECTIONS:
1. Start by preheating your pellet grill to 375°, we recommend using cherry maple or a premium wood pellet blend. Once the grill is set up, you should thoroughly wash each sweet potato and prepare them for baking by poking holes in the skins with a fork or knife and wrapping each one in tin foil. Place the wrapped yams in the heated pellet grill and allow them to bake for 1 hour. Once the yams are done, peel away the skin then slice into ½ inch thick pieces and place in a greased 12” cast iron skillet.

2. In a smaller 6” skillet, combine butter, salt, brown sugar, cinnamon and maple syrup over the stove. Turn the stove to medium heat and warm while stirring until sugar is dissolved. Pour the sweet butter mixture over the yams. Gently stir and then place the skillet in the pellet grill to cook for 30 minutes at 375°.

3. After allowing the yams to bake for 30 minutes, remove them from the pellet grill and increase the temperature to 450°. Add marshmallows generously to the top of the yams as the pellet grill heats up and then return the skillet to the grill for an additional 3-5 minutes or until golden brown on top.

If you want a juicier, more flavorful, and faster-cooking turkey this holiday, you need to learn the magic of Spatchcocking—especially when combined with the smoker!

How to Spatchcock a Turkey:
🍂Start by removing the turkey from your brine and pat dry. Then you can remove the bones and lay your turkey out flat. (view the full article for brine recipe and instructions)
🍂Lay the bird breast down and use kitchen shears to remove the backbone. Beginning at the tail end, cut along both sides of the spine until the full backbone can be removed and placed to the side.
🍂Once the backbone is removed, open the turkey and turn it breast up. Now place your hand on one side of the breast close to the breastbone and push down firmly until you hear the breastbone crack. Repeat on the other side.
🍂Flatten the turkey by pulling the thighs outward with the wings facing inward.

Don't settle for a dry turkey again. Full recipe and instructions on IFA’s Helping to Grow Blog>>https://hubs.la/Q03SVn-80
