Well you know how the breast gets dried out 'cause it's exposed?

Some people tent foil over the top but this is not terribly effective..,

The answer is to cook the turkey inverted with the breast at the bottom.
for 80-90% of the cooking time, then turning it right side up to finish.

This method cooks under the legs better and avoids drying out the breast meat.


HTH!
