We had a fabulous meal today. My wife and I have some medical issues so cooking was a bit of a challenge. In order to perhaps get some sleep we actually started the turkey in roasting pan with the lid on around midnight Wednesday at around 200 degrees.
At about 9 we took the lid off and cranked the oven to 325 and let the bird roast with no lid until around 12:30. It browned perfectly and by letting the lid on overnight and very slow roasting it we had the most moist flavorful turkey I have ever had.I also made smashed potatoes rather than mashed potatoes.
I coarsely chopped the potatoes and left the skins on. I cooked them in water with salt, black pepper, chicken bouillon cubes, chopped onions and ground Coriander. When soft I roughly smashed them and mixed them with butter and Sour Cream. Fabulous potatoes.
We also of course had all the other Thanksgiving meal trappings.
Awesome day.
