I baked the turkey this year in an electric roaster. It turned out
perfect, except it was done about an hour early. I just turned the
roaster down to 200 to hold it until we were ready for it.

Also, I cooked it breast-side-up, and the breast didn't really brown.
So I browned it with a heat gun (it's like a 900 degree hair dryer) to
make it look pretty. The turkey was good and juicy; even the breast
wasn't dry even though I didn't brine it, and this bird was not injected
with anything.

It was nice to have the oven not full of turkey when I was trying to get
the pies made.
