Herbed Turkey And Dressing

I have actually used this recipe two Thanksgivings in a row. I added about half the basting sauce to cover my 17 pound bird and then put in in a bag. Make sure the bag doesn't touch the skin or it will stick, basting sauce or not! About a half hour before it is done, I remove the bag, use the rest of the basting sauce, or most of it, and raise the temperature to 375 degrees. My turkey browns beautifully. And the dressing is moist and delicious. Another suggestion: add a bag of cranberries, make a large amount, and bake the rest of the dressing in a casserole dish on the side. It's like having two different kinds of dressing.
