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"?

"Gosh", If you like the same old thing every year, keep it up! And
spare us the lame details.
