You should double this recipe, Tony's creole seasoning is available in most grocery stores.





Cajun Style Turkey





12 - 14 lb turkey





Season inside and out generously with 2 - 3 Tbsp Tony's seasoning





Place 1 cup *veg mix and 2 sticks butter inside bird Place bird in roasting/baking pan


(*1 cup veg mix: In blender: 1 onion 1/2 green bell pepper 2 sticks celery 1 clove garlic)








Cover the turkey breast with bacon strips and a paste of butter %26amp; flour.


*1 cup chicken stock (1/2 inside bird other half in bottom of pan)


Cover or tent and bake in 300 degree pre-heated oven around 4 hrs, steaming until tender. Remove cover, pour off pan juices, set oven to 500 degrees and brown bird for about 8 - 10 minutes.





*';almost'; equal amounts (just a little more of the butter). Melt/heat butter then the flour is stirred in to make a paste that is not ';too dry';Does anyone have a Cajun Turkey Recipe for a turkey that will be cooked in an oven, rather than in a deep fat?

another thing you might thing about doing is making a cajun spice injection and injecting your turkey with it.
