Late to the party II - T-Day Sandwich

Again, being late to the party I have this Thankgiving sandwich I have been perfecting for years.
First I cut up the turkey skin and mix in chopped thigh meat and sear it over med heat. The skin crisps up into the consistency of bacon and the thigh meat helps keep it moist (in theory)

Then I sear the breast meat

hollow and warm the boule

meanwhile, back at the ranch - I assemble more hard stuffing patties and and sear

Thanks for looking. You can also add cranberry sauce but I choose not to. Someday this sandwich will be on my menu in my future restaurant.
 
Awesome!

You got a recipe for that habanero maple glaze? I'm looking for a new ham glaze...think it would work?

Hey Thanks all. There really isn't a recipe per se. Use about a cup of 100% pure maple syrup, about a half a stick a butter, squeeze in the juice from 2 oranges and some orange zest, a splash of Cointreau and slice in 1 habanero - I think this year we added in some orange concentrate too
 
That is a killer looking sandwich. Very unique take on using Thanksgiving leftovers. You have really brought your A-game to this board. Looking forward to seeing more.
