My family loves it because of the stuffing in the middle. For a variation, I sometimes use cheese on top instead of bacon.-Patricia Eckard, Singers Glen, Virginia

Tips:
- Thaw the turkey properly: Make sure the turkey is completely thawed before cooking. This will help it cook evenly and prevent the meat from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer: To ensure the turkey is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh.
- Don't overstuff the turkey: Overstuffing the turkey can make it difficult to cook evenly and may cause the stuffing to become soggy.
- Let the turkey rest before carving: Allow the turkey to rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute, making the meat more tender and flavorful.
- Use a sharp knife to carve the turkey: A sharp knife will help you get clean, even slices of turkey.
