This turkey was the best I've ever made or tasted! All my relatives raved about it. I cooked a 22-lb turkey in a cooking bag on a rack in my electric roaster to free up my oven for side dishes, and it took 4 hours at 325 degrees. (I had intended to cook it longer at a lower temp, but my alarm didn't go off!) I used the butter as suggested (used a whole stick in patties under the skin since it was such a large bird), and sprinkled on some Lowery's seasoning salt. I also omitted the champagne and put 2 C chicken broth in the bottom of the bag instead. Couldn't taste any apple flavor from the apples inside, but maybe they helped keep it moist. Roasting it upside down is the key!! Thanks for the tip! The leftover breast meat on sandwiches the next day just melted in your mouth! Not a tad dry! This is my new turkey recipe!
