This fail-proof roasting method produces the tastiest, juiciest Thanksgiving turkey
As the so-called kitchen professional in my family, I used to be expected to come up with newfangled takes on the Thanksgiving turkey each year. I’ve brined it, smoked it, fried it, dry-rubbed it; but eventually I (and everyone else around the table) tired of elaborate seasonings and complicated preparations. What we really craved was just a fantastic roast turkey—and this recipe produces exactly that. Follow these steps and you’ll have tender legs, juicy white meat, burnished skin, and lots of gravy. In fact, it’s the single best technique for roasting a bird that I know and the only one I use anymore when it comes to this special meal. ~ Molly Stevens of Saveur
