Ingredients
  

  • 1 15 pound organic turkey
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • ½ cup butter or butter flavored coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoons Redmond Real salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350. Place the turkey in a large roasting pan. Remove the heart and liver from the turkey and chop fine.
  • In a medium saucepan place broth, butter, chopped heart, liver, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil for 3 minutes.
  • Pour the butter mixture over the turkey and rub inside to coat well.
  • Place in the oven and cook for about 3 hours, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 170 degrees inside.
  • Remove turkey from oven. Allow to rest for 10 minutes. Debone the turkey and remove the skin.
  • Place sliced and cut up turkey into the roasting pan and cover with the skin. Store in the fridge until ready to serve (up to 2 days).
  • Just before Thanksgiving dinner, place the roasting pan in a 300 degree oven for 15 minutes or until heated to your liking.
  • Store extras in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Can be frozen for up to a month.
