Zooty Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 My MIL covered the turkey in bacon to make it moister. I never saw such a beautiful bird! Didn't work but the bacon and skin was the bomb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheikYerbuti Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I did my turkey covered in 2 pounds of salt pork and draped with a wet cheesecloth (recipe courtesy of ATK). I didn't really notice a major difference in the taste or moistness of the bird. Still, playing with all that pig belly sure was fun.

gilthorp Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I don't know what to say here...My folks and my wife's mom--each will only make their turkey in a roasting pan. So, when we hosted, my MIL brought the roasting pan and the bird was perfect, absolutely so moist that when I carved, the meat was folding off the knife. Amazing.
