Ingredients

  • ¼ cup dried sage
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 1 (16 pound) whole turkey, neck and giblets removed
  • 2 (12 ounce) packages bacon
  • 2 cups water

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a roasting rack in a large baking dish.

Step 2
Sprinkle sage and garlic powder over entire turkey. Wrap turkey completely with bacon. Place turkey on the rack in the prepared baking dish. Pour water into the dish.

Step 3
Bake turkey in the preheated oven, basting every 45 minutes with juices in the baking dish, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 3 1/2 to 4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
