I believe I cooked it a little to long. I used the weight on the price sticker which was with the neck and guts.

But left it in an extra 5 minutes.
It was still great, but the temp in the breast went to 170 degrees when I took it out. I read the ideal temp was 160 degrees. All in all it was great. And I'm hoping to perfect it next time Christmas Day.
Told ya! Jim
