If you are buying a larger turkey than usual, make sure it will fit in the oven.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you really love stuffing, wait until the turkey comes out of the oven, add some of the pan drippings to the stuffing, and bake it in a dish. That's called dressing, and that's not evil - stuffing is, though.
I have nothing against turkey. We eat turkey for Thanksgiving in my house.
Basting is evil. Basting does nothing for the meat. Why? Skin. Skin is designed to keep stuff out of the bird, so basting just lets heat out of the oven. That means the turkey will take longer to cook... so don't touch that door!
Turkeys are perfect for feeding larger gatherings.
Turkey, unlike chicken, has very elegant characteristics. It has more of a cache than chicken. Turkey is a delicacy, so it should be presented in such a way.
Turkey is fine, but if I don't have the sides, forget about it. And cornbread stuffing is at the center of my plate. I will have about six sides and then a little bit of turkey and gravy.
You should brine your turkey. Don't even think about not brining your turkey. Ever.
I love to cook a meal for the so-called holidays. You always need the turkey. I like making a good BBQ brisket as well.
My sense of humor is a turkey, and I pull it out of the oven and baste it in reality.
If you think about a Thanksgiving dinner, it's really like making a large chicken.
