Homestyle Turkey

    1 (12 pound) whole turkey
    6 tablespoons butter, divided
    4 cups warm water
    3 tablespoons chicken bouillon
    2 tablespoons dried parsley
    2 tablespoons dried minced onion
    2 tablespoons seasoning salt

  Preheat oven to 450F. Rinse and wash turkey. Save giblets and neck
 for gravy. Stuff turkey, if desired. Place turkey in a Dutch oven or
 roasting pan. Separate the skin over the breast to make little
 pockets. Put 3 tablespoons of the butter on both sides between the
 skin and breast meat. This makes for very juicy breast meat. In a
 medium bowl, combine the water with the bouillon. Sprinkle in the
 parsley and minced onion. Pour over the top of the turkey. Sprinkle
 seasoning salt over the turkey. Cover with foil, and place in oven.
 Immediately turn oven down to 325F. Bake for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, until
 the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 180F. For the last
 45 minutes or so, remove the foil so the turkey will brown nicely.
