Welcome to the Forum. Glad the turkey was a success, and thanks for sharing the pictures.

Beautiful bird! And I WOULD see all your great pictures when I'm hungry... /infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Question - you have a loaf pan on the corner of the table with a browned meringue on top. Might I ask what that is?

Hey Dave,

Good to hear from someone from Hot Lanta.

Thanks for the pictures. How long did it take to cook the turkey and what temp?

Sonny-

The 17 pound bird was injected w/ some cajun 'butter', cooked at 320 (at the lid) for a little over 4 hrs. I put 1/2 an onion, 1 medium apple and 1/2 a lemon inside the cavity to add some additional aromas.

Turned out pretty tasty w/ the gravy made from the drippings collected from the water pan!

Great looking turkey Dave, congratulations. Too bad about Starly with that third arm, must be hell buying her sweaters. /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif
