| Additional Comments: |
I tried this recipe for the first time last Thanksgiving (2003). The result was the moistest turkey ever. I did two different turkeys in two different ovens--13 lbs and 17 lbs. Prep included removing the neck and giblets from the turkey, and rinsing the turkey inside and out. I did not pat dry or season...just plopped them into their pans. One cooked for about 6 hours, the larger for about 7. The only reason I removed them sooner was because the little popups in the turkey had popped up. According to Debbie, cooking them longer, does not dry them out. I did let them set on the counter for an hour to cool before removing the meat from the bones. I cooked them the day before Thanksgiving, which made the last minute Turkey Day prep a breeze. Of course, the smell the day before drove both Ron and me nuts!!
