try cooking it on its breast first and put some streaky bacon onto it. I love turkey, so thats what we will be having. And saltbeef sandwiches for tea.
We buy loads of different meats in for over christmas, including venison.  Big Smile

Sorry but Christmas evening if theres any room left is for Turkey and stuffing sarnies in brown bread with lots of salt. I know salt is bad for you but its the only time I use it.

First thing dont over cook it ! lift the skin and put blobs of butter underneath and add a little water in the bottom of the roasting tin to keep it moist .
hope this helps . :lol:
