Directions
Bacon Wrapped Roasted Turkey,This recipe was shared with me by my wonderful boss who is an AMAZING chef! He helped make my 1st Thanksgiving one to remember by giving me this recipe. This Turkey is so moist and so easy to make!,Delicious, moist turkey! This is a keeper. It didn’t taste like bacon either (was concerned it might)– but I only put on a single layer and didn’t weave it..,Can this recipe be done in an electric roaster using same temp guidelines?
