I've been looking for non-traditional ideas to add a little spice to our Thanksgiving this year and just might have found it. Feel free to share your recipes & pics as well....

    Oh Lord! If my youngest son was to see that, I'd be in trouble. But, then again, it makes me want to go pull out my turkey and bacon!

    It would be very interesting to taste the turkey after it's bathed in bacon flavor! It'll be rather unique and tasty.

    Alton Brown was interviewed on NPR last night and he said that basting did more harm than good. He said that it does add more flavor to the skin but it doesn't penetrate through the skin into the turkey and by opening the oven you're letting out heat which means the turkey needs to be in the oven longer actually making the insides MORE dry than if you had just kept it shut...

    What does one call that-- a Burkey? Looks awesome, got room for one more?

    I suggest we call it "The Widowmaker"

    I was wondering this myself....thinking this is the REAL Turkey Bacon. ;) Nah...I have no idea but am open for suggestions. I'll post pics after I cook it, though.

    Turducken. Stuff a chicken inside a duck that's stuffed inside a turkey. It's amazing
