Unique Thanksgiving Recipe

A few years back, I had Thanksgiving over at a friends place. She had soaked the turkey in Guinness for 3 days, and I swear it was the best turkey I'd ever had in my life.

A few years back, I soaked myself in Guinness for three days. People swore I was the best turkey.

Oh, well!

Crab and Shrimp Stuffed Turkey
Ingredients
2 tbs of Butter of your choice
7 cups of Water
2 tbs of Salt
3 cups of Stovetop stuffing
4 cups of Crab meat
4 cups of small sized Shrimp

Method of Preparation:
1. Mix the shrimp, crab and the stuffing mix together.
2. Keep it in a bowl and place it in the refrigerator.
3. Put the turkey in the pan. Put the water, salt and butter in the pan with the turkey.
4. Place in the oven for 2 and a half hours. Take it out and bast it with more water and the drippings.
5. Put back in the oven for another 2 hours.
6. Take back out and take your turkey baister and suck about 6 cups of drippings out and place in a bowl.
7. Take your turkey stuffing and very slowly mix with the turkey drippings until moistened to your liking.
8. Take and place your turkey stuffing in your turkey and finish cooking it until done.

Use the traditional stuffing for turkey (bread crumbs and/or corn bread, onions, chopped celery, your favorite spices) but try adding about 20-30% home made or store-bought Italian sausage meat. Just mix it in with the other ingredients & roast as usual. It makes a fantastic non-traditional gravy too!!

If it's a bit late for this year, keep it in mind for next year. You can always test it out on a capon or roasting chicken .... just as yummy!!

Good luck!
