This is the only way I will make turkey and believe me..I have made alot of them:)

***If You Aren’t Stuffing The Turkey With Dressing, Make Sausage Dressing After You Have The Turkey In The Oven..Refrigerate & Bake It When Turkey Is Done... I Let The Turkey Rest For 20-30 Minutes When It Is Done & By The Time It Is Done Resting, The Stuffing Is Done.
