Speaking of delicious Turkey…I used Alton Browns method this year. After brining overnight, cook for 30 min at 500 degrees, then down to 350.

I admit I was skeptical, but the 14lb bird took just a bit over two hours. It was wonderfully browned outside and moist, juicy and flavorful inside.

I highly recommend this method…with one caveat. I added some liquid (white wine and stock) to the pan from the beginning. Otherwise the high heat burns the turkey drippings, smoking up the oven and your house! Plus it smells bad and you cant use the drippings for the gravy.
