Old family recipe - Popcorn turkey stuffing

Turkey Stuffing Recipe

Here is a turkey recipe that also includes the use of popcorn as a
stuffing -- imagine that. Perfect for people like me, who just are not sure how to tell
when poultry is thoroughly cooked, but not dried out. Give this a try.

8 - 15 lb. turkey
1 cup melted butter
1 cup stuffing
1 cup uncooked popcorn
Salt/pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Brush turkey well with melted butter
salt, and pepper. Fill cavity with stuffing and popcorn.

Place in baking pan with the neck end toward the back of the oven. -VERY IMPORTANT

When the turkey's ass blows the oven door open and the bird flies across the room, it's done.

right until the punchline.

But aerodynamically, the bird won't fly if you aim the "neck end toward the back of the oven"..........

Just remember to open the can before putting it in the oven.
