After I read the part about the Thompson turkey, I had to google it.  It's insane! And so am I because I'm going to make one today.  I'll report back with the results later.

That recipe is way too many ingredients. If your turkey needs that much flavor, it's sucky. :-D. And I LOVE cooking, but that's too much

The recipe is kind of overwhelming, but basically 90% of the ingredients go into the stuffing.  The rest is a paste that goes onto the turkey and a basting liquid, both of which are pretty simple.  So...if the stuffing is not better than sex, I'll never make it again, LOL.  It took friggin' forever to put together.  Thank God I have a food processor.
