Thanksgiving 2002.This is the last year that this lovely avocado green wall oven was used for a Thanksgiving dinner. This was the year that I rubbed the turkey in butter and then slathered (bathed it really) it with a bottle of Sauternes (ice wine). The result,.... well as the alcohol heated up and the butter melted the two got together for a fantastic explosion! Not blowing the turkey up, mind you, but a loud flaming whoooosh of an explosion like you hear in an action movie! This technique can probably never be duplicated, but in the end it was the best turkey anyone had ever tasted!
