Cooking: A Drunk Turkey is a Happy Turkey

The Best Marinade I have come up with is none other than an alcoholic one.  Yes, alcohol! Not only is it good to clean infections ( wait that's rubbing alcohol :/ ), wine is great when you cook anything from beef stew to marinating a turkey.  Since it is Easter tomorrow the family requested turkey and I of course never say no to them.  So here I am close to midnight, decorking a simple Sauvignon Blanc that I must leave my turkey soaking overnight in.  It is a 15lb bird so just 1 bottle will do.  And don't forget to slap it around a bit!...you know to help all that good stuff seep in.

That being said here is my turkey prior to baking ( see picture above )...now stay tuned because tomorrow I will post the results and directions.  But like the post clearly states: A Drunk Turkey is indeed a Happy Turkey...
