I've always just sprinkled salt and pepper in the cavity of the turkey
and rubbed it all over the outside with butter or margerine, put it in a
roasting pan and baked according to the bag the turkey came in. As for
use, I would sliced up most of the breasts and make a turkey gravy and
combine the slices and gravy and freeze for turkey meals later that you
could serve with mashed potatos. The rest of the turkey I would shred
off the bones and divide into 1 - 2 cup portions and freeze as well. The
shredded I would use for turkey enchiladas (same as any chicken
enchilada recipe you have). After taking all the meat off the turkey, I
would boil the bones. The carcass may be too large for your pot, but i
have found that the carcass can be broken in two, to fit in the pot. I
add whole black peppercorns, salt, bayleaves (2-3) coarse cut onions,
carrots and celery and cover with water. When the water is reduce by
almost half, start taste testing and adjust your seasonings. Strain and
add some of that shredded turkey and some fresh diced carrots, celery
and whatever to make turkey soup.
