Have you guys tried roasting the bird breast side down? I’ve heard that’s the best way.
I haven’t done a whole bird but did a partial bird that had just had stuffed cavity and breasts and it was awesome. Ironically it took longer to get the stuffing to temp than it did for the breasts meat.

I roast breast down, and 'stuffing' on the side.

Then technically that’s “dressing”

I'm getting good at dressing chains
They are predicting snow all day Sunday + Monday, with high temps for both days right at freezing.
Already have the Blizzacks on the F-150 and the Mustang, guess it is time to put the plow on the ATV.

out west, that's what we tell all the potential tourists
Interesting.
Stuffing goes in the bird. Dressing is cooked in a separate pan.
As long as there’s lots of butter, celery, and giblets in it, I’ll eat it all. Lol.

2nd load from a black locust tree that fell on the road from the big winds we had. It was state land and the county came and moved it to the road side. So i helped out and got it out of the ditch. Not sure if that was legal. Michigan used to require a permit to get fallen trees of state land....
i need some stake pocket walls for this thing. Maybe just the hight of one 2x12 tall.

Turkey Liver Pâté! - The dogs have to get in line behind me
Turkey is OK, but I had Venison Backstrap (rare) for dinner tonight … now that is REAL FOOD!!!
Grilled of course … but I cheated and used the propane gas grill … it taste a little better when I do it upstate over Black Cherry … but the wife prefers the gas!
It is Very Good either way, and this year I have two sets of backstrap to consume!!!
