(this isn't really this recipe's picture - just something to give you an idea)
Sorry I had to call this "Jim's" - my dad came up with it - so just giving credit where credit is due. Anyway - its the best way to cook a turkey - so easy, so yummy, and no clean up. Enjoy!

Here's the ingredients for the rub - it's not an exact science, there aren't measurements or anything, but when we tried it we just guessed at amounts and it turned out great.
Spice Rub
Lawry's
salt
pepper
chili powder
dehydrated onions
celery salt
crushed basil leaves
crushed parsley flakes
thyme
rosemary
crushed red pepper
garlic powder
Here are the baking instructions:
-Preheat oven to 275
-Rub ample spice rub on outside and inside of turkey (after removing
insides)
-Place in turkey cooking bag and poke 4-5 holes for ventilation
-Wrap bird in 4-5 layers of the extra large size tin foil (the
regular foil just makes it harder to get a good seal - so use
extra long if you can find it)
-Poke holes in foil for ventilation - make sure to get clear
down to the cooking bag (we used shishkabob skewers to get
through all the layers)
-Place on baking sheet
-Bake at 275 for 12-13 hours
-Use a knife and cut through foil layers on the top - seperate
foil (this makes a bowl type thing with the foil, catches all
the juice and makes easy cleanup)
Wal-ah!
P.S. If you make gravy from the drippings, make sure to add
plenty of water because the spice rub and method of cooking
make the drippings very flavorful and salty.
