Because it cooks in half the time, it doesn't dry out. It really was the best turkey and easier to carve too

Re: Tips on Cooking Ye Olde Turkey!!

I spatchcocked my turkey last year, and it cooked in half the time. Was a right nightmare to do, mind, but worth it me thinks. It takes up less room in the oven, as it isn't so "tall" so you can cook other stuff at the same time.

I'll try and find a spatchcocking link for you

Cover the parts that you don't want overdone with foil.

Thing is so many find it a useful post

So it must be.

Only in so much as it reinforces our general opinion of the male species!



(Just for the record, I'm not a feminist, you're amusing little creatures really!)

They are, aren't they!

Having said that, I get my ex-MIL to cook it as it we all go to her house for Christmas dinner

We all help out with buying/making the rest of it though...

BTW Deepie, I cook chicken upside down too, for exactly the reason you quoted.
