3-hour Turkey

Your method has raised an eyebrow. I might try it with a few chickens later ( changing the cooking time of course ) Not to steal any of your thunder, I brine mine and roast it breast side DOWN. Don't give a rip about the momentary "beautiful brown breast skin". I want moist breast meat and this does it every time because the juices flow down when cooking and you can almost DRINK the meat.

Any ideas on how this might work with brown wrapping paper? I guess getting it sealed shut would be the issue.

Okay - wanted to try this, but was too scared to do it when everyone is coming over. So I did it today for practice. WOW! Is this turkey ever delicious and an evenly browned bird (mine usually look like I cooked it in a crooked oven). Thanks for the recipe.
