Mom’s No-Fuss Turkey Serves 8 Ingredients: 1 12lb Turkey* 4 tbsp of melted butter 2 tbsp of rosemary 1 garlic clove 1 tsp salt ½ tsp freshly cracked pepper 4 cups of chicken broth ½ cup of white wine Method: Preheat oven to 325. Remove neck and giblets from the cavity. Rinse turkey and pat dry. Combine melted butter, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. Rub turkey all over with the rosemary, garlic butter. Including under the skin of the breasts to flavor the meat. Tie the legs together with butcher’s string. Place on a roasting rack, in a large roasting pan. To the bottom of the pan, add 1 cup of broth, ½ cup of wine, and turkey neck. Tent turkey loosely with foil and roast covered for 1 ½ hours, adding more stock to the bottom of the pan, in 1 cup increments if it gets below about 1 inch. During the last hour of cooking, remove foil, and begin basting the turkey, with the pan juices, every 15 mins. This will help the turkey brown. One hour later check the internal temperature. Turkey is done when it reaches 165F degrees in the thickest part of the thigh and breast. Allow to rest for 20 mins before carving, to retain the turkey’s juices.
