Upside Down Turkey image

This recipe for turkey came from a mistake. My son invited us for Thansgiving. When he took the turkey out of the oven, he said "Mom-this turkey doesn't have any meat on it." He had roasted it upside down in the pan. It was the most moist flavorful turkey I had ever eaten! I do it this way quite often now.

Time 4h30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 large turkey- 13 lbs
1 c butter melted
1/4 tsp thyme, dried
1/4 tsp salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. We used 13 lb turkey, but you can use larger one, just adjust time cooked. Set oven for 350 degrees.
  • 2. Mix the spices together in butter. Rub the butter mixture over turkey, back & front. Place it in large roasting pan. Roast with top off for 30 min. Put top on turkey, roast for remaining time according to turkey directions.
  • 3. When roast period is up- check that turkey is at 170 degrees with meat thermometer. Remove from pan, cover with foil & let set for ar least ten minutes. Then Enjoy! You will still have drippings for gravy. If not, add chicken broth to pan, scrape drippings in pan then proceed for gravy. DO NOT STUFF TURKEY!

This recipe was a total disaster! The turkey was dry and overcooked, and the vegetables were mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

Overall, this recipe was good. The turkey was cooked evenly and the vegetables were flavorful. However, I found that the upside-down method made it difficult to brown the turkey skin. I think I'll try cooking the turkey right side up next time.

The turkey was a little dry, but the vegetables were delicious. I think I'll try brining the turkey next time to help keep it moist.

I was skeptical about cooking a turkey upside down, but I'm so glad I tried it! The turkey was perfectly cooked, and the juices from the vegetables basting the turkey made it incredibly flavorful. I'll never cook a turkey the traditional way again.
