Holy shheesh.. Looks like a prop from a horror movie!! The one thing I miss about living in Chile is that you can't get a butterball turkey. Maybe you have the solution!

Doesn't have to be a butterball. I think it's more all about prep and cooking. I inject the night before and cook at 325 F uncovered until internal temp in the thigh is around 170, basting every 1/2 hour after an hour, pull and let it have a good rest before slicing. If it starts to get a little too dark I just cover loosely with foil and uncover for the last 1/2 hour. 18-20 lbs is usually around 4 1/2 hours. If I have an extra frozen turkey, have a craving mid winter and don't care about it drying out I throw in an electric roaster with about a quart of chicken broth and forget about it until the meat starts falling off the bone. That usually gets all cut up and mixed with gravy for hot samiches.
 
Cheeseburger soup - Double batch +. I doubled + the ground meat ( 8oz per single batch not nearly enough ) , chopped garlic, dash of Thai hot pepper powder, 1/2 tsp white pepper, substituted 1/4 of the milk with heavy cream, accidentally forgot the sour cream - didn't need it, and used unpealed reds for the taters. Aldi's has a 2 lb Clancy's "cheese melt " block . I used the whole thing instead of Velveeta. My test bowl was topped off with a bit of Carolina reaper cheese - ohhhhhh ya!

One word that will change your entire turkey-cooking game - spatchcock.
The only problem with spatchcocking your turkey is you can’t stuff it. I like stuffing in the bird. I use the technique when roasting chickens in the Big Green Egg and thry cook faster and come out reallu good.
