[Harmless Teddy Bear]

If you added it after the bird was cooked?

Maybe while it was resting?

Not sure. I might try it in a test bird one of these days.

I was thinking of putting already cooked dressing inside the bird before you put it in the oven. If the dressing were still warm, it would start heating the turkey from inside & maybe take a little less time to cook.
