Us, too. I roast at 500 degrees, rub all over with salt and pepper,
squeeze the juice from a lemon all over, push some sprigs of rosemary
under the skin, stuff the turkey with an onion cut in half, some
rosemary, a bunch of garlic cloves, the shell of that lemon. Roast for
about 2:15 for the size turkey we usually get. Crisp skin, moist meat,
amazing taste. We like it. You tent foil over it while you make the
gravy, to which I add bourbon, and it is a lovely meal.

Regards,
Ranee
