Just a quick link to an old .pdf I made about a better way to do Turkey for Thanksgiving. By removing the thighs and stuffing them, you can cook a turkey that will taste great and not be dry as hell. I did this project in St. Andrew's Cafe under Chef Garnero. Really, it wasn't my project but I was trying to help Ben not fail the class. He had to miss two classes (which would have been an instant fail) but he talked the Chef into letting him do a project to make up for some of that time. I offered to help knowing Ben would need computer and camera help.
Chef was so pissed I made his picture that big, but it was worth the laugh.

Martha has this crazy turkey recipe where you cook it on the highest oven setting and it's done in like 20 minutes. It takes a special kind of roasting pan and it smokes a lot, but I was probably the best she's ever made.
The link is dead...

That should say, "it was". I am not, in fact, a turkey.

Hoover's first comment made me laugh. I immediately envisioned him as the dancing chicken body in Peter Gabriel's smash hit video "Sledgehammer."
