So I successfully cooked a turkey by meself for the first time. It was in the oven for about 4 hours and came out not too bad. Maybe a little dry for Aaron's taste which compared to fried turkey, yes everything else is dry. I got every bit of meat off the bone I could and saved the broth and skimmed the fat and even boiled the skeleton and got more broth. I freezed some meat for easy dinners later and am going to freeze some broth too. Not too bad for a first time. It is a good thing I have a mom that can tell me what to do, otherwise I would be clueless. I think I want a roasting pan so that I can make turkey more often (but not too often) because I had to borrow mom's. Seriously though, it was only $15 and I got meat enough for about 8-12 meals if not more. That is pretty inexpensive.
