    I made this for Thanksgiving but we stuffed it and that didn't work so well. The maple syrup flavored the drippings therefore the gravy. The turkey was really moist. Also, it was difficult to spread the sage butter under the skin evenly. I'd like to try it again without the stuffing.

    I have made this recipe for the past 4 years and people that normally don't like turkey LOVE this Turkey! It's perfect and when you plate the breast it's gorgeous! I am however going to make a slight departure this year and do everything as designed only smoke it!

    I have been making this recipe for the last two years for Thanksgiving and have been nominated the offical Thanksgiving dinner Chef! This is absolutely wonderful. Takes the every year turkey over the top and people talk about your dinner for days after Thanksgiving and still to this day! The only thing that I will add for a tip is if you don't have a dripless baster go get one! It makes a world of a difference. The maple syrup drippings make the gravy way to sweet. Tried that my first year and the next year I just made my own turkey stock prior and used that to make the gravy. Bon appetit!

    Wonderful! Made gravy with the juice and delicious! My guests were also fighting over the bacon! I did add more syrup/water for basting. My turkey was 17 LBS

    Made this for Christmas dinner 2006 and it was very good. UPDATE: Made it again for Thanksgiving 2010 and again, it was wonderful!

    We love this recipe!!! We call it HEART ATTACK TURKEY. Everyone fights over the bacon. This will be the our third year having this for thanksgiving. I have also made it several other time. If you haven't tried this recipe you're missing out!

    This is going to be the third straight year that we have enjoyed this very bacon covered turkey.

    This was a huge hit at Christmas and the whole house smelled AMAZING!! I used more maple syrup & water to baste since I ran out early but other than that didn't change a thing. The entire turkey was extremely moist.

    The only thing I would change would be the sage, just not a big fan of it. I think next year I'll go with a little rosemary.
