The key to a good turkey is in the quality of the bird itself; you definitely want to go with organic. Deep fried is ok, but there's something about baking a turkey all day and filling up the house with a nice aroma that completes the tradition. One thing that I've done in the past is marinated the turkey overnight in a brine. Great tip I got from Martha Stewart, if you're worried about over-drying the turkey in the oven. That and a shitload of butter lol.
