Turkey With Herb Butter & Caramelized Onion Balsamic Gravy,If you are searching for an outstanding Turkey recipe, this is it! I have been making this turkey recipe for the past eight years and my family would not have it any other way! This has fantastic flavor! The gravy can be started while the turkey roasts. When the turkey is through cooking, finish the gravy with balsamic vinegar and the pan juices.,This is my new favorite turkey recipe for Thanksgiving! Loved how easy it is to prepare and the flavorful gravy. used recipe #263524 for the stuffing, which I filled the turkey breast cavity with prior to turning on the crockpot. A couple of gravy mistakes I made which I note because I’ll read this review the next time I make this: I didn’t strain the gravy and I didn’t thin it enough. used fresh rosemary and sage. This is my go-to turkey recipe! Love it! Thanks, Cooks4_6! Not made for any tag game, food.com event, or recipe swap! Looked for a great Thanksgiving turkey recipe and I found one!!! Lol!
