Stuffing it with sawdust, putting it into the oven for three hours, and then forgetting it for another two because the relatives are arguing about who sits next to whom is not the best way to prepare it. Poached and thinly sliced turkey breast is quite nice, though. So are pan-roasted legs. You have to be careful with it, because it tends to be dry; larding it helps a lot.
Turkey is completely tasteless. It's like the spam of the bird-meats.
