Thanksgiving Recipe Card

Hey everyone, Happy early Thanksgiving!!! :)

Today i have a recipe card to share with you. This was for a swap over at Creating the Crafty Life. The theme was Thanksgiving, and we could do any dish. So of course i chose the biggest one of all, the TURKEY!!!! I have this recipe that i made a couple years ago and like OMG!!!! it is sooo delicious. My in-laws always say that the breast meat is sooo juicy and just can't believe it, well i would have to agree. :) The key is to inject the turkey, yes i said inject. So hear is a vid on the card i made. The recipe is below the vid, i hope you see this in time to try it out. you can make this recipe any time of the year and substitute with a whole chicken.










Thanks for watching :)

  10. Baste with juice from pan about every 30min. After 2 hours remove foil tent.
  11. Continue to roast and baste for about another 1 and half hours.
