this is my favorite way to make turkey-comes out moist and wonderful Ingredients:
1 (12 lb) whole turkey, fresh if possible |
mccormicks roast chicken seasoning |
2 fresh lemons |
1/2 cup butter |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
2. Wash and pat dry Turkey in cold water.
3. Place turkey in bag and bag into deep roaster.
4. Cut 1 lemon into slices.
5. put slices ( minus seeds) under turkey skin ( breast, thigh, wearever).
6. Cut 2nd lemon in half.
7. Squeeze out juice ( minus seeds)over top of turkey. Put empty lemon rind halfs into cavity.
8. Liberally sprinkle the McCormick Chicken seasoning over the entire turkey ( I use 1/2 bottle per turkey ).
9. Place stick butter on top of turkey.
10. Close bag and tie-leave only a small amount of room between bag sides and turkey.
11. Cut six slits into bag.
12. Roast 2 1/2- 3hours or until turkey leg separates easily and meat falls off.
13. Remove Turkey and let sit in bag ( in roaster also) fro at least 30 minutes befre slicing.
