- Rinse the Turkey off inside and out, pat dry. Sprinkle the turkey inside and out with salt and pepper. Very carefully run your fingers under the skin, starting at the breast and working your way to the back of the turkey. With the rest of the sage butter smear it under the skin all over the turkey.
- Stuff the turkey and roast at 350 for 30 minutes. Add 1 cup chicken broth to the pan. Mix 1/2 cup maple syrup with 2 tablespoons of hot water. Baste the turkey with the syrup every 30 minutes for 1 1/2 hours.
