has anyone used oven-roaster bags to keep their turkey moist and tender while ..

cooking? I was thinking of trying it and opening the bag at the end of the cooking time to crisp the skin?

Been there, done exactly that. Helps to put a rack in the bag under the bird, too.

Just roast it without stuffing. I tried once with, and it got all soggy.

I have! >>>

I roast turkey without the stuffing like Ang mentioned.

I rub it with some favourite spices and a little oil, then put it in the bag.
I throw in an onion (cut into smileys/bigeyes.gif and a carrot (roughly sliced) for flavour, chop off one of the corners of the roasting bag to let the steam out and roast it according to the recipe.
I love roasting bags!!!
