This turkey is as simple as it gets, and it's absolutely wonderful. Seasoned only with salt, pepper and a little bit of brown sugar (to encourage that golden brown skin), it's juicy, savory, and can be ROASTED ON A SHEET PAN! We love it! Not only does this bird give us the main event, it also gives us schmaltzy, tangy shallots (a perfect side), a flavorful stock (great for turkey soup leftovers), and meaty, delicious gravy (to pour over the whole plate). You'll learn how to make all three (turkey, stock, gravy) and they'll all be welcomed additions to the menu–I guarantee it. For the full meal, you can watch our Thanksgiving special here: https://youtu.be/NyNOZOr9uIA.
