We didn't really do Thanksgiving this year so when we were shopping (on Thanksgiving), I bought this and made it later.

I would absolutely consider just turkey breast in the future. Especially when there weren't a lot of people (or in this case, literally just me) this was so much easier to handle. And can be cooked in the toaster oven.

I just used melted butter with some black pepper, ground thyme, and freshly ground dried rosemary. It worked well. I liked the addition of the pepper.

As often happens, I was glad I spot checked the temp elsewhere as the area near the thermometer was the right temp, the rest was not.
