many roast their turkeys upside down so that the juices flow to the breast and it is not as dry - I, myself, I turn my turkeys and chickens oven when roasting

Now u r truly funny Jafo because that is not possible!

Mama Mangia, well I stand corrected, this is the first time I know about roasting turkeys upside down. What I do is overnight place my stuffed turkey or chicken in the oven on a low fire, when I awake my baked meat of choice is thoroughly baked, all I need is to add the baste and cook for another 5 mins, but I will definitely use this idea when I am in a rush.

it really doesn't affect the cooking time - it is the fact that the juices flow into the breast of the bird - which we all know is the driest part of the bird - I'm always flippin' the bird! LOL

I also bake my birds upside down. Nice to have a rack in the roasting pan. Then flippin the bird, lol, Mama. let the top get nice and brown before it's removed from the oven.
