What are you gonna cook this year? Spartan brand frozen turkey breast? Full on 25 pound Amish free range turkey? Boneless breast? Organic, vegan raised, Montessori educated turkey from Holy Foods?
While my preference is a bone-in breast, was overruled by the boss lady. Bought a 14 pound Butterball turkey at Meijer for $14.
BTW, we all know by the time the dark meat is done, the breast can overcook a tad. Half an hour prior to roasting, I place an ice filled baggie or two on the breast of a whole turkey. (Discard before placing bird in oven, of course.) This chills the white meat and helps the bird to roast evenly.
You going to brine? Dry brine? Spatchcock? Stuff?
