Using your fingers, gently separate skin from meat at the breast,
sides and leg areas. Try not to puncture the skin.
Rub the paste evenly under the skin directly on the meat.
Cut orange and apple into halves and place into cavity.
Place turkey on a rack over a drip pan.


Bring the Egg to 250°.

Place turkey in Egg and pour Sherry or red wine over the bird.
