Cooking Spray
Parsley

Sea Salt
Wash & rinse the turkey drain off all water & pat dry inside & out with paper towels. Stuff with the uncooked stuffing, pack loosely!
Truss up your turkey & the sprinkle with the seasonings. Spray with cooking spray all over the bird. Roast covered at 325 for 4 & 1/2 hours uncover for the last 1/2 hour. Remove from pan & let rest while you make gravy from the pan juices. 
GRAVY I take all the pan juices & drippings & place in a deep saucepan. Add about 2 cups of water from your potatoes you are cooking to make mashed potatoes (this adds flavor & starch to help thicken your gravy). Bring to a simmer. In a large deep mixing cup add about 4 TBS of Cornstarch & stir in about 1 Cup COLD water. stir until smooth. Now stir into your bubbling turkey broth. Stir & cook until thick. If you need to add more cornstarch & water mixture go right ahead because you want I nice thick gravy!

Once gravy is ready & Potatoes are mashed CARVE THAT BIRD, SAY GRACE & DIG IN!
