Steps:
- The day before serving, prepare the turkey for brining. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Set the neck aside for the stock. Cut off the wing tips and set aside with the neck.
- Butcher the turkey into 8 pieces: 2 breasts, 2 legs, 2 thighs, and 2 wings. Set aside the carcass for the stock.
- Combine the salt, brown sugar, pepper, and granulated garlic in a small bowl.
- Set a wire rack inside a baking sheet. Place the turkey parts skin-side up on the rack and generously sprinkle with the seasoning blend. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- Make the stock: Preheat the oven to 450˚F (230˚C).
- Place the turkey carcass, wing tips, and neck on a baking sheet with the onion, carrots, and celery. Season lightly with salt and drizzle with oil.
- Roast for 30-45 minutes, or until the carcass and vegetables are deep brown.
- Transfer the roasted vegetables, turkey carcass, and other parts to a large stock pot.
- From the still-warm baking sheet from roasting the carcass, pour any rendered fat into a small bowl. Add about 1 cup (240 ml) of water to the pan and scrape off any browned bits from roasting process, then pour into a separate bowl. Reserve for the gravy.
- Strain the stock, discarding the solids. The stock will keep for 5 days in the refrigerator or for 3 months in the freezer.
- Cover the carcass with cold water. Add the bay leaves and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Continue to simmer (don't boil!) for 3 hours.
- Make the gravy: Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the turkey fat and flour, stirring to combine. Cook the fat and flour together, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes. This is a roux--you are cooking out the raw flour taste and deepening the flavor.
- Gradually add the stock to the roux, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a boil, continuing to stir until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let cool to room temperature. Store in the refrigerator until ready to warm for serving with the turkey. The gravy will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- 2 hours before you are ready to serve the turkey, preheat the oven to 425°F (220˚C).
- Remove the turkey parts from the fridge and drizzle with oil before placing in the hot oven.
- Roast for 30 minutes, then rotate the baking sheet to ensure even browning. Reduce the oven temperature to 400˚F (200˚C).
- Continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 160°F (70˚C).
- Or when the thigh registers 170˚F (77˚C). Start checking after about 20 minutes, removing any parts from the oven as they reach proper temperature so that they don't overcook.
- Once all parts are done, loosely cover with foil and let rest for 5-10 minutes while you warm the gravy.
- Add the gravy and sage, if using, to a medium saucepan over low heat and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Season to taste with more salt and pepper, if needed.
- Serve the turkey with the gravy and your favorite Thanksgiving dishes.
- Enjoy!

CAJUN BUTTER SPATCHCOCKED TURKEY
Everyone knows I love entertaining, but the last thing I want to do on Thanksgiving is wake up early and watch a bird cook all day! I want to be part of the party! That's why my go-to on T-day is a spatchcocked turkey. It cuts down the cooking time by half and takes the fuss and shows it the door!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Fit an 18-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with a wire rack.
- To spatchcock the turkey, use a large chef's knife or kitchen shears to cut along both sides of the backbone. Remove the backbone and reserve for stock if desired. Place the turkey breast-side up on a cutting board and use your hands to press the center to break the breastbone and flatten the bird. Use your fingers to gently loosen the skin from the breast and the legs, then place the turkey on the prepared baking sheet.
- To make the Cajun butter, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt and black pepper in a medium bowl. Place the butter in another medium bowl and mix in the spice mixture until well combined. Transfer a quarter of the Cajun butter to a small microwave-safe bowl and set aside.
- Rub the turkey with the remaining room temperature Cajun butter under the skin and on top of the skin.
- Roast the turkey until the skin begins to brown, about 35 minutes.
- Microwave the reserved Cajun butter until melted, about 10 seconds. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, brush the melted Cajun butter over the crispy skin and roast until golden, about 20 minutes. Baste the turkey with the pan drippings and roast, basting once more, until the internal temperature registers 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour.
- Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest at least 15 minutes. Pour the juices from the baking sheet into a small serving bowl and reserve for drizzling over the bird. Slice the turkey breasts and transfer to a serving platter. Remove the wings, thighs and legs and transfer to the platter. Slice the 1/2 lemon into rounds. Garnish the turkey with the lemon rounds and herb sprigs if desired.

- Turkey: Take the seasoning mix and rub on to exterior surface of turkey all around. Also, dust the inside cavity with seasoning. Take the cut up orange, lemon, onion, garlic and stuff them into the cavity. Place the bird into your baking vessel; large oval roaster works best. Drizzle olive oil all over the top of the bird. They cut the bacon package down the center to make short strips. Place the bacon slightly overlapped, covering the entire top of the turkey. Put into the oven uncovered.
- Follow the baking times recommended by vendor. 12 to 16 pounds 4 to 5 hours. The last 35-40 minutes when the bacon looks cooked, take tongs and remove the bacon. The skin will brown up in the remaining cook time. When turkey is done, remove drippings and place into heavy bottom skillet. Cover the turkey in the roaster tightly and let sit.
- Gravy: Cut up 3 medium onions into & 1 bell pepper into skillet with drippings- renderings from turkey. Put on medium-high heat. Begin the browning process. This is a larger amount of base for gravy. It may take 45 to 55 minute for gravy to complete. Thoroughly mix the ingredients in skillet, and let it sit for about 7 to 10 minute intervals before stirring. Do not add any moisture for at least 20 minutes. When you see the mixture beginning to stick to the bottom. Add about 2 tablespoons of hot tap water and begin de-glazing the bottom. Repeat this process about 3 to 4 times until you see a rich brown coloring of the mixture. Add 3 cups water bring to boil. Add 2 tablespoons of flour whisking it into gravy to give body and even consistency. At the end you can use some of the left over seasoning mix to bring the flavor level up. Uncover the turkey. Carve it up and serve. May serve over rice or potatoes. The left over bacon works great as a garnish on some of the side dishes you may serv
