    How do you manage to burn a turkey? There are hours of leeway between cooked and burnt.

    Unless you accidentally put the oven on a clean cycle.

      A smoked turkey looks like that, the skin gets all charred but it’s succulent inside

      Sugary glaze/coating. Maple or honey is common, or some kinds of brown sugar or molasses glaze. You’ll burn the outer layer pretty quick especially if your oven is small and the breast is sticking up close to the burners…

      Meat might be okay but the skin will kinda ruin the rest anyway.
