AMAZING!!! The most wonderfully tasting Turkey we have ever had! I followed the recipe exactly. My parents said they could smell the Turkey as they drove into the neighborhood and were excited to find that the aroma was coming from our home??. I have never felt soo proud! This is the only way I will ever make turkey again. Thank you!?
Out of my family, i am the one who doesn't cook. However, for some reason i was asked to cook the turkey for our family gathering this year. I found this recipe and decided this was the one. Well, let me tell you, it came or great!! Everyone said it was really good!! It was easy, didn't the long to cook and now I'm afraid i have a new job...the new turkey cooker! Thx for having this recipe on here!!
I made this again this year, and it was still a favorite.
Ok folks. This is, by far, the BEST turkey I have ever made! It is so juicy and with that little hint of apple, it is OH SO GOOD!!!

Made this for Christmas Eve dinner. It was wonderful. The herbs under the skin flavored the breast meat which I usually find bland and dry. I also tucked in a few small chunks of butter with the minced herbs to keep the breast meat moist. The gravy I made from the drippings was very flavorful. I used turkey stock that I had made from the neck, tail and giblets, as well as an onion cut into quarters and a couple of stalks of coarsely chopped celery. I also added about a fourth cup of white wine to the gravy. Delicious! This will be our new family recipe for turkey, especially since my husband doesn't like stuffing cooked inside the bird. Thank you for sharing.
