How to cook a perfect and juicy turkey

OK -- some purists are going to hate me for this . . . I know there are many who are devoted to fresh, not frozen, turkeys . . . many like to do their own brines . . I get it and there are MANY great ways to make a turkey. But for my money, this way is foolproof and the bird is just delicious! I learned this method from my Aunt Betty, who always does a perfect Thanksgiving feast.

Here goes . . .

Buy a Butterball turkey -- either fresh or previously frozen. Follow the directions exactly.

Viola!!!!

The only other thing I do is to sprinkle the skin with some olive oil, salt, and herbs de provence before cooking.

It never fails . . . .
