My mom bastes it with orange juice, butter and chicken broth. I think she injects some into the turkey too. Once the turkey juices start running clear she uses that to baste it too. We also put the stuffing in a bag (stuffing bags are a godsend) and put the bag in the turkey. Or actually I think the bag goes in the turkey and then the stuffing in the bag. We have yet to get sick.

I don't like turkey (any turkey) but people tell my mom her's is amazing.

GD - similar story with a cousin and my mom except her wonderful matzo ball soup is from the Manachevitz box. Same with her spilt pea (from the tube).
