later with the turkeys own juices.*

turkey is done.

with foil. The turkey should stand
30 minutes before carving.

knives and a good carver among the group. Enjoy!
*For a moist bird, frequent basting is essential, so dont forget!
Baste every 30 minutes---breast and legs should be a lovely golden
color.
