This is a wonderful recipe for beginners as well as the experienced cook. Put this bird in the oven, went to the movies, came back to a moist succulent turkey. It's that easy. Every bite is moist!! You can't go wrong!! Lots of wonderful pans juiced to make gravy with. Superfine flour called "Wonder" by Gold Medal is a must for new cooks. Your gravy will be lump-free. Taste your gravy after you have thickened it to see if you need to add any more salt and pepper. If too salty, just dilute with water and a little more flour...until it tastes good. Easy gravy!

Ingredients

2 tablespoons Seasoning salt
2 tablespoons Dried minced onion
2 tablespoons Dried parsley
3 tablespoons Chicken bouillon
4 cups Warm water
6 tablespoons Butter, divided
12 pounds Whole turkey

Method

01

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Rinse and wash turkey. Discard the giblets, or add to pan if they are anyone's favorites.
02

Place turkey in a Dutch oven or roasting pan. Separate the skin over the breast to make little pockets. Put 3 tablespoons of the butter on both sides between the skin and breast meat. This makes for very juicy breast meat.
03

In a medium bowl, combine the water with the bouillon. Sprinkle in the parsley and minced onion. Pour over the top of the turkey. Sprinkle seasoning salt over the turkey.
04

Cover with foil, and bake in the preheated oven 3 1/2 to 4 hours, until the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 180 degrees F (80 degrees C). For the last 45 minutes or so, remove the foil so the turkey will brown nicely.
