I'm gonna do it Paula Deen style and rub it with about 4 sticks of melted butter!
Only 4 sticks?
That's what I am asking ,only 4 sticks , put about 4 of those butter blocks in that bird .
Why do they call butter a stick ? Looks nothing like any stick I have ever seen . How many pats are in a stick ?
I enjoy boning out a chicken and stuffing it with boudain and sewing it back up and cooking it on the grill or baking it . Yummy You can't take the wing bones out though , but the rest is easy as pie .

Thanks! Jim is now in a walking cast! altho, he can't put weight on it for 2 more weeks. I guess they want him to practice wearing it first. At least he can take it off to sleep AND to shower, which will be wonderful!!!
I just PM'd you mine & Mom's cell phone numbers (I have yours) - see you tomorrow! I figured she was up for a road trip & Jim has an estimate to work on, plus PT to start on his leg.
Mandy I'd just rub the turkey all over with whatever seasoning you want -- I like Paul Prudhomme's poultry seasoning for both poultry & pork -- and brush it good with olive oil & melted butter & stick it in the oven on low heat & let it go -- if it starts to brown too much on top put some tin foil over it -- until it reaches the right temperature - according to the chart I have, 325 degrees until it reaches internal temp of 185 degrees & a 10-12 pound bird should take 3-4 hours. (unstuffed & thawed) I sure wish I knew what I did w/that old recipe - it was in a Southern Living magazine...
anyway, looking like rain here so off to feed the outside critters before I get wet!
Best wishes to Jim ,and hope he has a speedy recovery ,with no residual problems .
