If cooking a whole turkey....start it upside down...then turn a bit less than halfway through. This allows the juices to permeate the white meat meat and retains moisture throughout.

Plus, if you lower the turkey into the hot oil head first it sends a message to the other turkeys.

Yes, this works great. I also take two cans of pineapple rings and put them on the bottom of the roasting pan and set the upside down turkey right on top of them. No rack, just the rings. Its as easy as it gets and the meat is so moist, tender and flavorful.
