- 1 whole turkey

- Rub 2/3 of the softened butter and herb mixture under skin, over the turkey breast and drumsticks. Spread remaining butter over the top of the turkey skin. NOTE: If stuffing turkey, stuff at this time and tie legs together and secure skin flap in back.
- Place butter/white wine mixture on low over the stove to warm and use for basting. NOTE: When the mixture runs low use pan juices.
