Steps:
- Melt butter slowly as not to burn.
- Add rest of ingredients and mix well.
- (I place in a covered bowl and shake vigorously).
- Inject into your turkey and allow to sit for one hour or more before deep frying.
- HINT: We were cooking the turkey while camping, and decided to leave it in the bag to inject it, so it would not be so messy!
- It worked great!

CREOLE ROAST TURKEY
Try this the next time you're in the mood for something a little different for your holiday dinner! It's from a November 1987 issue of Bon Appetit featuring a "Creole Thanksgiving". The sensational Creole Butter helps make the breast meat moist and flavorful and the Recipe #337979 adds to the Creole flavor. You may want to adjust the amount of "hot" in the stuffing to your own heat tolerance!
