Receta Best Butterball Turkey and Gravy Ever
A friend has an oven too small to cook a large turkey, so she gave me her 22 lb. Premium Butterball to cook. Since Butterballs come pre-basted with a saltwater solution, there's no need to brine or salt it.
I decided to cook it on a low heat and it turned out fabulous.
