Well here's the last update, we went with cooking it via the broiler,
and it came out quite well. Skin on the breast was a bit too dark and the legs were a bit dry, but the rest came out great, over 2 cups of juice came out of it for gravy and the rest of the meat was very moist. Had to flip the bird a couple times. But even got done about a half hour sooner than we had planned via a regular oven. Thanks for the suggestions, though. > On Thu, 25 Nov 2004 08:47:04 -0600, Scott Henrichs > > scribbled some thoughts: > > > >>So our oven broke this morning (heating element burned out) and we have >>aruged over two choices on what to do: >> >>1.

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. Bob |

Make the pies a day or two before the big day. 900F heat gun? Why such a low heat weapon, the last one I bought was 1500F, got it at Lowe's after someone brought it back so it was half price. Pop a vinyl tile up in a heartbeat. Never tried to cook a turkey with one but not a bad idea. I wish I had a place to store an electric roaster. Pantry and cabinets are completely full, mostly of canning supplies and the goodies canned therein. Grands and greatgrands are coming today so a lot of canned goodies will go home with them. George |

Upon doing some research after I noticed that "her" response to my post mimed my email addy I found that it's an AI bot. It looks for keywords then adapts it's email addy to mimic the poster to which it replies, then replies in a similar fashion. For mine it musts have read the header wherein I have Organization: http://www.halfhill.com/rotator.html (Applied ROT 17 Left, for Email do 17 Right). So then it attempted a ROT by rearranging letters, but not substituting them, so that it can still be read. At first I thought it was dyslexia, but when I saw the email mime, I knew that something was up. -- Sincerely, | NOTE: Best viewed in a fixed pitch font | (©) (©) Andrew H.
