I was a little bit disappointed in how the turkey came out. It was pretty cold and windy and I allowed for a longer cooking time, but it cooked a little bit faster than I had anticipated,maybe due to the wind. While there were some parts,like the dark meat that were tender,moist and delicious,there were some parts of the breast that were too dry. I probably could’ve taken it off and wrapped it at 155 instead of 165. Fortunately the appetizer and side dishes were great. Try again next year.
