I make this turkey every year at Thanksgiving and it is always a big hit. I make a whole turkey and the gravy is not weird at all provided you follow the instructions. I tend to double up on the ingredients for the gravy to make sure there is more than enough to go around. At first I did not have a marinade injector and had to stab the turkey and insert the baster into the incisions every hour. Now that I have the injector it makes life a whole lot easier. The turkey comes out beautifully and very moist. Because I commute between England and America I have had to substitute the frozen apple concentrate for bottled apple concentrate whilst in the UK. It doesn't pack the same flavour, but it is still very good. When in the U.S. the frozen is great. I like to serve this with an apple stuffing.
Read MoreI made this using a 5.5 lb turkey breast instead of a whole bird. Cooked for 2 3/4 hrs total. I was concerned that I had overcooked, because my meat thermometer registered over 175, however, it came out very juicy and perfect. The aroma while cooking was to DIE for! The gravy was WEIRD and I threw it away, possibly because I had no giblets and not much pan drippings. For this reason giving it 4 instead of 5 stars. Would definitely utilize this recipe again.
