Ok I don't know if this is the wackiest Turkey recipe ever but here you go. This is how WE do it. I think this came from my great great grandmother but it may go back even further in my family.
When you go to cook your bird, clean it up the regular way. We always cook no less than a 30 pound bird but you can adjust the ingredients to the correct sizes. Buy 2 pounds of pork sausage with SAGE seasoning. The Sage is the key. Cover the entire top of the turkey with one pound of the sausage in a layer about 1/4 to 1/2" thick. Try and imagine you are creating an "umbrella" over the turkey with the sausage. Now take about 1/2 of the other pound you have and make a big ball. Now stuff it inside the cavity. Take any remaining sausage and plug any holes in the "umbrella" so that you have a good seal over the bird. The juices from the turkey don't have a chance to evaporate due to the placement of the "sausage shield". Cook covered on 200 degrees for 9 hours. Turn it up to 300 and cook still covered for 3 more hours. Take the sausage off the top and cook uncovered an additional 45 minutes - 1 hour for browning. Well, that's how we do it around here. Try it sometime and I promise you will have one of the best turkeys you have ever cooked.

There is one in the oven now, 32lbs, looks like a small child trussed up and covered. Sage and onion stuffing forced under all the skin, butter smeared over the skin .. 20 mins per lb .. the smell is amazing.
The pork and sage from your great great grandmothers recipe is to keep the skin moist and protect it, whilst infusing it with the sausage fat and sage, which will give it a delightful taste. Just dont eat the sausages if they are anything like the English ones Fuck I love Christmas ... |

i lucked in on finding someone who does fried turkey dinners for xmas, turkey,mased potatoes, crwfish stuffing and green bean casserol for like 50 bucks.
Buti still usually cook my own dinner (this year the exception due to injury). last year i cooked chateubrion (sp?) he year before i made the new orleans classic, the Turkduckin. was awesome, a chicken inside a duck inside a turkey, with an inch layer of stuffing between each bird. completely boneless. VERY tasty, adn so much food you dont have to mak anything else but a good botle of wine at the table all the triptophene put everyone to sleep fr hours that was fun.
