>>696704The old family recipe is to roast the turkey in a paper grocery bag, but in May 1998, the United States Department of Agriculture issued the following advice:
Do not use BROWN PAPER BAGS for cooking. They are not sanitary, may cause a fire and can emit toxic fumes. Intense heat may cause a bag to ignite, causing a fire in the oven and possibly adulterating the turkey. The ink, glue, and recycled materials in paper bags can emit toxic fumes when they are exposed to heat. Instead, use purchased oven cooking bags.
It worked for us.
