I admit I know there is heat loss when basting. And I basted approx. per half hour the last 2 hours. It takes time to pull out the rack, so you can get at the bird and dibble up some drippings with a baster and repeat. I figure that just makes it seem like you are cooking low and slow, although that wasn't the goal. The turkey came up to temp just at 15 minutes well before the old 15-18-20 minutes/ lb that cooking instrux offer before I had a probe to check it.
G G did you cover your turkey with foil or a foil tent?

New question. What is the purpose of a Roaster Cover? It doesn't fit once a turkey is in the roaster. I think if you covered it, it would steam rather than roast.
