Default Whole Turkey Breast Question

First off Merry Christmas. I ran into a problem today. I was gonna use my neighbors oven to cook my whole turkey breast while I had my 18lb whole turkey in my oven. Their oven is not working now. I figure my bird is gonna take about 3.5-4hours since it will be stuffed. Will the whole 7lb turkey breast keep nice and moist if I cook that first in the oven, then wrap it in towels and throw in the cooler while I roast my whole turkey? I'm sure it will be just fine but just wanted your suggestions. Thanks.

I would stuff the bird after it's cooked using the birds juices as the fluid content. I' not a fan of pre stuffing because I don't care for the thought of the uncooked juices getting into the stuffing and possibly not cooking through.

Also start the breast at about the half way point of the full bird.

Two things you don't do is stuff a bird or cooler a bird. Don't stuff for the reasons above and if you cooler the skin will turn to rubber and the bird will dry out. I would take it apart and reheat using chix broth. Do the same with the breast or serve when it's cooked.
