    I found this recipe about six years ago and have made it every year since then. I love this recipe and normally I am not a big stuffing or cornbread fan but in this turkey I can't help but eat it.

    I made this for my family last year and it was amazing. We are not big turkey eaters, but this was so good that we ate it all.

    By far the best turkey. Every year I vow to try something new, but every year I do this one, and my guests always compliments and ask for the recipe. I'm not a stuffing person, but love this corn bread stuffing, I only put a little in the turkey and bake the rest in a corningwear.

    I am 16 years old, and I am planning on making Thanksgiving dinner this year!I saw a video where Alton Brown said stuffing was evil... do you think the stuffing worked well with this turkey?

    I add my own little twist and every year I'm left without leftovers, even thought we make two turkeys. It is amazing, not too sweet and so moist (especially if you brine it in apple juice, chicken broth and herbs. I don't make the stuffing, so I cannot write about that, but it is a perfect Thanksgiving turkey.

    This recipe is so good, we only had turkey for Thanksgiving and Christmas prior to this recipe. Now my family wants turkey several times a year, even my mother in law who does not care for turkey enjoys this turkey. I have made this several times now my family just won't have it any other wayThanks again Tyler and the food network..

    I personally do not think the bacon is needed in the recipe. Also, the cornbread stuffing was a little to moist for me. Next time I will turn the corn bread squares into croutons so it does not get soggy. Other than that, the flavors were fantastic. I will be making this again and it may just become my go to favorite.

    I brined the turkey over night and it was so moist and flavorful. The smell as it cooks is wonderful. I can't say enough good things about the whole stuffing and gravy experience as well. Definitely a keeper!

    Someone called this their "show-off dish" or something like that. I back that up 100%. The gravy is sweet with maple flavor, and the bacon flavor really stands out! My menu included this, the creamed spinach, nutmeg mashed potatoes, and thyme popovers (all found at this site as well as a few cans of Ocean Spray cranberry jelly. (They have a cran-raspberry one now, fyi, which is tasty!. The cornbread stuffing is amazing, and the flecks of sage on the turkey make for a beautiful presentation on the plate. I think the bacon moisturizes the meat. I did this with a 14-lb turkey, draping the bacon on at 2 hours and tenting the entire bird with foil at 2.5 hours. Instead of laying it across two burners, I just kept it in the disposable turkey pan and sucked out all the drippings with the baster and transferred them to a large saucepan and mixed the gravy ingredients there, letting it come to a simmer before removing it from heat. DELICIOUS!!
