Yield: 1 marinade

See recipe

Thaw turkey (if frozen) on Monday & Tuesday in
refrigerator.

On Wednesday, put 3 onions (cut up), 4 garlic cloves
(sliced) and 1 large bunch of parsley in cavity of
bird.

Pour Vernors (ginger ale) and 8 oz orange juice
concentrate in cavity. Cover and rub bird with
Catalina dressing. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and
pepper and paprika. I put the whole mess in a garbage
bag and marinate it overnight.

Before baking, discard all marinade.

Di Note: When I finally bought my house, I wanted to
have Thanksgiving here instead of at my mother's
(which was traditional). I had NEVER done a turkey
before. I bought this HUGE creature and started to do
the marinade thing (my Mom's recipe). Well, I don't
have much counter space and this bird was a slipping
an' sliding all over the place and I was laughing
hysterically. I was actually fighting this monster!
My Mom called to see how everything was going and all
she could hear was me cackeling. She jumped in her
car and came over and here I was, on the floor with
this damn bird in my lap and marinade all over me. It
was one of those moments...great marinade tho!
