What do you do with the chablis? Drink it?

Here is my what my family does. The problem with roasting turkeys the traditional way is that you have to overcook thse breast to get the thighs and legs done.

So.... we brine the turkey in kosher salt and cold water for a few hours....

Then we roast the turkey breast side down first for an hour and 15 min, then turn it on each side for 30 or 40 min, then finish breast side up for the last 45 min.

Result is a moist-breasted turkey with delicious crispy golden skin.

Pretty traditional, but outside of a fried turkey, I have never had turkey cooked as perfectly.

Happy thanksgiving!

PS... we make gravy with the giblets.
