Yes...oven cooked is the only way we'd even consider cooking our
turkey.

I guess you've never had one slow cooked over lump charcoal and
apple wood.

Fried are nice a juicy and quick. We have done them that way on
camping trips. The oven roasted give you the drippings for
excellent gravy, and I also like to cook them in my offset firebox
smoker for 8-9 hours with some alderwood for smoke. They are all
good.

If you ever decide to try one on the grill or smoker, loogypicker and
I do
the same thing, and it works. Buy a cheap pack of turkey wings, put
in a
cast iron pan, and roast at 350 in the oven for a couple hours. This
will
provide a good base for gravy, and it can be done early.



Gosh, I put the whole turkey in a turkey bag in the oven at 350F for
three hours and it is done, wings, legs, breast, everything, and I
don't have to worry about a grill or a smoker outdoors. Is it the Army
way to make more work than need be out of a simple task? Did you have
to call in for a "surge"?

No way, a bag? Talk about screwing up a really good bird, put in a
bag.



You google that up?

No, I know that from my vast experience, but I am sure I can Google up
real chefs who would confirm/verify my statement. I think it is funny
that when I provide documentation to my belief, you think it is
"googling" up answers. You on the other hand, make closed minded
statements based upon your extremely limited knowledge or experience, and
assume that it is correct for everyone. The vast majority of the time,
you are incorrect, and would have a hard time finding anyone who would
agree with your simplistic approach to the real world. You don't like it
when someone provides proof that your are wrong.


The best thing I can think of doing with a turkey fryer is to dump you
into it head first, and then feed what comes out to some inner city rats.


What have you got against those rats?
