2 HOUR TURKEY
Trust me. It really works! This method, developed by a local chef, results in a juicy delicious bird in 2 hours (well, 2-3 depending on the size of the bird) I'm posting this because my mom and sisters have done this for years but this is my first time hosting Thanksgiving (yikes) and I don't want to loose the recipe before I use it.

Steps:
- Cut off skin at the neck.
- Cut off wing and second joint.
- Remove giblets.
- (It's probably a good idea to cook the wings and giblets to make stock since most of the juice will stay in your turkey rather than making a lot of pan drippings).
- Clean turkey and pat dry.
- Salt and pepper inside and out.
- Coat all over with oil, rubbing in a little to make sure you have a good coating.
- Sprinkle generously with paprika.
- Place turkey on its side in a large roaster.
- Roast in a 400 degree oven for 2-3 hours.
- 3/4 of the way through the cooking time, turn turkey to the other side.
- It is very important that you DO NOT PIERCE THE SKIN.
- Just a hint: To ensure you don't pierce the skin and let out all the juice you might want to use a couple old (clean) oven mitts and just pick up the bird to flip it.
