With the Thanksgiving holiday approaching, a quick question. What's the difference between a chicken and a turkey?
For us Chinese, there is a year of the Chicken/Hen but noone for the Turkey
simple... chickens are small, go 'cluck cluck', and taste good.
Turkeys are a bit bigger, go 'gobble gobble', and taste dry and nasty.
There's a reason we only eat turkeys once a year... and have you ever heard of the chain restaurant 'kentucky fried turkey'? I think not, and with good reason.

The upside down turkey cooking idea sounds like it would actually come out amazing!!! I am going to try to convince my sister-in-law to do this with our turkey
Thanks Jas!
You really must come for dinner at my house. One of the secrets to not having a dry and nasty turkey is to begin cooking it upside down, so the breast meat doesn't overcook, and the lovely juices drip into it. Then turn it breast side up for the last hour so you get a nicely crisped skin. Silicone mitts work well for this, or a couple of clean plastic bags over regular ones.
