You know what!? I did that once. I THOUGHT I looked in there good enough...Mom said, "Where's the neck and stuff?" I said, "There must've not been any with this one!"...........well, let's just pretend that was a secret to making the turkey nice and juicy!
I don't usually put stuffing in my turkeys. I make it on the stove, that's what DH likes best...and I do, too...but I put onions, carrots, celery, garlic, etc. in my turkeys before roasting. YUM! The juices have so much flavor for gravy! And, yes, each Thanksgiving I make gravy from the juices from the turkey even though it's such a no-no! Gotta watch the fat and cholesterol!
