1 to 2 cans beer
Butter

Wash turkey well. Pour 1 to 2 cans beer over turkey. Baste with butter. When you need to baste the turkey, make sure you have enough beer. It shouldn't absorb too much. The turkey will be really moist and tender. Even the white meat is real moist. You can also do the same thing when roasting chicken with 1 can beer.

Cut up chicken. Pour beer over chicken. Baste 1 or 2 times during cooking. The dippings also make excellent gravy.
