Lay several strips of bacon over the bird before you stick itin the oven. The fat juices from the bacon tenderizes the meat oh so well. You can even overcook it & it'll retain a lot of that moist flavor. Delish.

Re: How do you cook your bird?

Brining a fresh bird is awesome! I sautee up some onions, mushrooms, and pine nuts and add that to some bread crumbs. Then I add in some ground sage, salt pepper, and chicken stock to moisten. Makes an awesome stuffing. Pretty easy and oh so good!

Re: How do you cook your bird?

Brining???? What's that? Sounds like salt?

If you buy a frozen turkey, it will more than likely be already pumped full of a salt solution to help keep the meat moist and seasoned. If you purchase a fresh turkey it will be minimally processed. Brining a fresh turkey (soaking the turkey in a salt/sugar solution) helps with flavor and moistness. It's pretty easy. Here's a link to Emeril Lagasse's brining method for turkeys.

Re: How do you cook your bird?

We usually roast. Sometimes we'll try an unusual stuffing, but most often we stay pretty standard.

I think I will give this a try. It's bacon so it has to be good, right?!
