So it sounds like, based on your own comments here, that what you REALLY believe, but just don't want said in PUBLIC, is the following:
a) Since it's a "illegal war," we should pull out IMMEDIATELY.
b) Since you think "ALL the people of this country should be expected to make sacrifices," you understand and agree with Rangel's reason for wanting to re-institute the draft.
The thing is, it sounds like you're just not as honest and forthright with your views as Rangel is.

I always used to do two turkeys when I did holidays. I'd cook one the night before, slice it up & put it on a microwaveable platter. I'd cook the second one on the holiday & throwing the drumsticks from the first one in with it for about 20 minutes / half hour to warm them up.
It's a good way to get extra stuffing & gravy, plus you're dealing with younger, more tender birds. Like you, I go with high heat. I use the roaster cover, plus foil & baste, starting around an hour after I put the turkey in the oven.
If you're going to try cooking both at the same time, I'm thinking you'd need to add about an extra half hour to an hour. A meat thermometer would be your best guide. Guests are generally patient if the meal needs extra time, so I'd add the half hour into my calculations & if it takes a little longer, so be it.
That's because they're so busy chewing or repairing broken teeth that they don't have time to make a bathroom run. I mean, if you actually enjoy eating shoe leather, I hope you're at least not paying top-dollar prices for it.
The one drawback to rare or medium-rare meat is that less fat cooks off, so you really need to be careful about trimming it off at the table if you want to avoid "the runs". As for food safety issues, you want any exposed surface fully cooked, but the interior is fine very rare, because the harmful bacteria can't penetrate that far into the meat.
It's a bait-and-switch tactic on the part of the wormongers.
Yes, right, but you DUmmies ought to be honest and admit you don't give a D*MN about our murderous, torture-loving troops. The important thing is, END THE WAR NOW! IMMEDIATE PULLOUT! STOP BUSH'S ILLEGITIMATE WAR!
Haven't you been saying this for the last few years?
Thanks. I really like Alton. Do you know if that will work with a non-cast iron pan? I want to try it this weekend, but don't have time to pan shop.
7 pounds each & you've cooked them before? Shoot, I've done 12 pound *stuffed* birds & they only take about 4 hours at high heat. Four hours sounds way too long for seven pound breasts.
Yes! Get rid of Rangel in the Primaries. Just like they got ride of Lieberman.
To think that Rangel could be pushed out of his district. What are these folks smoking? I am convinced the DUmmies are mostly teenagers with lots of free time on their hands.
They obviously know nothing about politics.
Decisions, decisions. . . .
WWMSD? What Would Mother Sheehan Do? Ask America's "Peace Mom"!
The 6% who voted for the other guy were mugged on their way out of the polling place.
It was an off year for Charlie. He'll do better next time.
He's only a copuple of percentage points away from the standard vote totals "received" by most totalitarian governments in their bogus "elections".
OK, DUmmies, now here's the deal. Forget about Cuba or Canada or France. Move to Harlem! Yes, that's right! A mass migration of DUmmies to Harlem! I want to see Will Pitt and goodboy and HamstersFromHell and stevenumbers and IndianaGreen--all of you--pack up your bags and settle down in Harlem! Then in '08--if you should survive that long--I want you to vote in the Democrat primary and TAKE OUT RANGEL!
THE COUNTERREVOLUTION ENDS TODAY!
When you slap the steak (You did bring it up to room temperature didn't you?) into a pan it is going to cool off the pan, a lot. This will happen even with the pan pre-heated in the oven and the burner on high. If the surface temp of the pan drops below 350 degrees you will not get the desired searing when you flip the steak.
BTW - To get the desired 'crust' use Kosher and not table salt. Table salt will dissolve almost on contact with the meat. Kosher salt will not. If you need salt to dissolve in cold water, use pickling salt. It's all NaCl, just different size crystals.

They actually have a TENNY bit of common sense. Not enough to appreciate this country, but enough to know Rangel makes them look bad. Funny indeed. Hope they enjoy their brief power. They are revealing themselves quicker than I would have thought.
Thanks. I'm glad I didn't try it anyway. Now I know what to wish for for Christmas....A good cast iron pan!

Turkey can be a counter to SAD, which is one of the reasons I make it regularly. The same chemical that knocks people out after TDay dinner is also an anti-depressant. I've read that it may be more of a placebo effect, as there's not enough of the chemical to be affective.
