Turkey in a Bag

1 16-20 lb. turkey thoroughly thawed
1 large paper grocery bag
1 cup peanut oil (only)
david's orignal recipe calls for worcestershire powder---today the powder is not generally available---you can use the sauce instead----

Sprinkle the sauce on the turkey and then rub it in with a
little peanut oil.
Fully coat the inside of the bag with the rest of the peanut oil.
Put the bird in the bag breast side up and tie the open end closed with
some string.
Put in lower section of a roaster with no lid and place in oven
pre-heated to 325 degrees.
Cook for about 10-12 minutes per pound.
When done, take it out and poke a hole in the bag away from you to let
out the steam and then as david would say, voila! (Do NOT cook dressing
in the bird.)
