Practice Mad Max Turkey Cooking Today

EggHeadDad · October 2015

I have read about and heard about Mad Max Rosen's recipe for several years now but never tried it. So in prep Thanksgiving this year I thought I'd experiment when the pressure is not on success for dinner. ;-) I am using a 13 pound turkey I picked up at Wegmans.

Local to Springfield, VA? My wife is out of town this weekend so swing on by for a beer and some BGE turkey talk. Cheers!

Taste was very good, but not great. Nice and moist, but not as much spice flavor that I would like. I might play with some seasoning of the left over gravy. Relish was a great blend of sweet and sour.

Any suggestions you have or things you'd do different?

I had used unsalted butter for the gravy . . . it probably could have used a little extra salt. I also went easy on the salt in the turkey. I did not brine the turkey either so I might consider doing that for Thanksgiving.
