Brushed and Baked BBQ Chicken Rolls

-
I was originally inspired by this recipe that I found online (it was delicious, btw). I decided to take it in a different direction and the end result was sensational! I'm only judging by the groans of ecstasy from every quadrant of the dinner table, but they're usually pretty reliable food critics.Ingredients
24 rolls
Mayonnaise
Baked chicken breasts, shredded
BBQ sauce of your choice (I'm a sucker for KC Masterpiece Hickory Brown Sugar)
Cheddar or provolone cheese, shredded or sliced

Brush Sauce
1/4 c. melted butter
1 Tbs mustard
1 Tbs Worcestershire sauce

Optional Toppings
Lettuce
Tomatoes
Sliced apples
Cole slaw
Carmelized onions
Avocado

Directions
Mix together shredded chicken with bbq sauce until well coated. Slice rolls in half. Spread of mayo on the inside of each roll. Assemble rolls with bbq chicken and cheese. Place assembled rolls on a cookie sheet. Mix together the melted butter, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce with a whisk. Brush this mixture all over the tops of the rolls (OR just on the inside of the sandwich for a less messy variation) and cover with tin foil. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes until heated through. Peel open sandwiches and add additional toppings as desired.

**I no longer use poppy seeds when making this recipe. They don't add a ton of flavor, but they add an astounding mess, so we've dispensed with them.

Orange BBQ Chicken Kabobs

This easy, tasty chicken recipe requires no marinading time ! It was so easy and so flavorful! I found a version of it on www.allrecipes.com Orange BBQ Chicken Kabobs Cut chicken into kabob-sized chunks and put on skewers. Mix 2 parts BBQ sauce and 1 part orange juice concentrate. (I mixed two separate batches just to make sure there was no raw chicken cross contamination.) Spoon generous amount over kabobs Place on grill and cook for 10 minutes Flip over with tongs and brush remaining sauce onto kabobs. Grill for additional 5-10 minutes until chicken is thoroughly cooked. This can also be done in the oven! Put the kabobs on a lightly sprayed cookie sheet. BROIL for about 20 minutes on one side, flip, sauce up again, BROIL for about 10 minutes on the other side!

Homestyle Turkey, The Michigander Way

This turkey was pretty much amazing. Very flavorful and extremely tender throughout. I'm not very experienced with making delicious turkeys, so I would call this a no-fail recipe. I found it originally at Allrecipes . I served it for Thanksgiving dinner and all the eaters were completely ga-ga! Ingredients 1 (12 pound) whole turkey 6 tablespoons butter, divided 4 cups warm water 3 tablespoons chicken bouillon 2 tablespoons dried parsley 2 tablespoons dried minced onion (I used fresh) 2 tablespoons seasoning salt Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rinse and wash turkey. Discard the giblets, or add to pan if they are anyone's favorites. Place turkey in a Dutch oven or roasting pan. Separate the skin over the breast to make little pockets. You do not need to cut the skin. Just pull it up a little and shove your hand under it -- gross, but if I can do it, you can do it. Put 3 tablespoons of the butter on both sides between the skin and breast meat. This...
