Last year, my friends had their first Thanksgiving in their first place. None of us were really sure how to make a turkey so we looked on the Internet and found a video from Alton Brown. Not only was it the most moist turkey we ever had, we made it in two and a half hours.

So if anyone's interested in making a super moist turkey AND not have to stew it in the oven all day then this may be the video to check out.

Thank you :D :D :D

Another vote here for Alton's recipe - it is beyond excellent!! :D

I have never done anything Alton Brown has done without complete success. He's great!

I have cooked a Rib Roast with in a somewhat similar way. Start off with 20-30 min at 450 then reduce to 325 until the temperature is reached. I may have to try it with the turkey. I am not cooking this year, but maybe I will remember for next time I do

I am going to try it this year.

I'm going to try it also! It's just going to my hubby and I this year. Thought we were going to have company. We have an 18 lb bird! :roll: :lol:

Ya know....I did not know his name??? I watch him on various cooking shows ALL of the time, too :roll: :roll: :roll: Not only is he an excellent cook, but his knowledge is awesome and I love his sense of humor, too 8) 8) 8)
