Should I dry out my turkey overnight in the fridge to help crisp the Skin?

Look at altonbrown.com. He has a recipe that dries it over more than 1 day.

Hi Denise,

One of my all-time favorite turkey recipes does just that, and it creates the most amazing, crispy skin: https://food52.com/recipes/24985-spatchcocked-braise-roasted-herb-butter-turkey

No need to spatchcock the turkey, if you have other plans, the salting and buttering will still do wonders.

Hope this helps, and happy holiday.
