This recipe is a keeper! The turkey was moist and tender, and the chipotle-herb rub was perfect. I will definitely be making this again for Thanksgiving.

The turkey was juicy and flavorful, but the skin was a bit too crispy for my taste.

I tried this recipe and the turkey was a bit dry. I think I cooked it for too long. But the flavor was still really good. I'll try it again and cook it for less time next time.
