The secret to a juicy turkey is to slather copious amounts of butter between the skin and the meat.

And a stick of butter stuffed in the cavity.

While you are slathering your turkey with butter, grab a sprig of your favorite herb... I like rosemary, but thyme or sage would be nice too. Place that under the skin on the breast and legs and bake as usual. It not only flavors the meat, it looks beautiful as well.

Several years ago I watched a Top Chef episode where Chef Elia made a “Proud” Chicken. She slathered it in a stick of butter - I remember thinking it was coated with a half inch of butter all over. She won that episode, too.
