I like the looks of that. Those guys on the Food Network are a walking contradiction.

Greg,

Well, I googled it and it seems to be all the rage. I'm still not sure that it's Okay, but I will try anything once.

I still believe a deep fried turkey will beat the pants off any "baked" turkey with fancy wrappings!

I'm with you somewhat, Michael. I would not eat the bacon unless you get the temp high enough. If there is anything bad that gets on the turkey in the processing, it's going to be on the surface of the turkey. Cooking it to temp will get rid of the bad bacteria. (It's why I love steaks medium rare, but my burgers are always medium well.) Covering it and never uncovering it could put things on the edge for me.

That said, if you get the temp right, without drying it out, you likely good.
