• When you are sure you have enough alcohol in it, spread its legs and throw in some marjoram then tress the cavity.
• Loosely cover the bird with aluminum foil.
• Place in oven, consistently basting it with the liquid on the bottom (composed of water, vegetable scraps, and the juices from the hot, wet steamy bird).
• Baste approximately every thirty minutes for the recommended time: About 4 1/2 hours for a 16-20 pound bird at 325F or until internal turkey temperature is 185F During the last hour of baking, coat turkey with whisky or other liquor every 15 minutes.
• To make gravy: Take the bird out of the pan to cut.
• Skim off the gunk and take out the remains of the vegetable scraps.
• Put the pan over a burner on the stove and turn on medium heat.
• Make a sludge of a few spoons of flour and a little cold water, and mix into the hot pan liquids, stirring and scraping the pan.

Steps:

• Thaw the turkey and place in a roasting pan. Put 2 sticks of butter in the cavity of the turkey. Take 1/2 stick of butter and rub on the turkey itself. Pour 1/4 can of beer in the bottom of the roasting pan. Place desired amount of seasonings in the beer can (we love tons of flavor, so we use about 1 tablespoons each of garlic salt, cajun seasoning and greek seasoning and 1 teaspoons of onion salt. Place can into the cavity of turkey, top first. Leave the can sticking out of the cavity a couple of inches. Pat seasonings on the buttered turkey. Cover with aluminum foil. Cook as directed on bird.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees, Rinse turkey, pat dry all over and salt the cavity. 2. Combine the dried fruits, raisins, apples and jalapenos (if using) in a medium bowl. Add the liquors and orange juice and let sit for 15 minutes. Drain the fruit and reserve the soaking liquids. Combine the sliced butter with the fruit 3) Fill a basting/injector with the soaking liquids and inject into the turkey, trying to distribute it evenly over the entire turkey 4) Stuff the turkey with the fruit. Melt the remaining butter and pour over the turkey. Place on a roasting rack in a pan, tent with foil and roast for 2.5 hours basting with the pan drippings (add more orange juice if necessary). Remove the foil for the last 1/2 hr to allow the skin to brown. 5) When ready to serve, scoop out the fruit and puree half if it. Place the rest in a serving dish. Mix the pan drippings (defatted) with the fruit puree and pour over the fruit or serve in a gravy dish. If it's too thick you can thin the gravy with poultry stock
