Lucky, I've never used an oven bag. Is there browning, but no crispy skin?

I was going to make myself a turkey dinner today. I thought a leg would be perfect, especially because I prefer dark meat. I went to three different stores and there wasn't a leg to be found. One store had turkey wings, but that was it.
If I ever move, I will check out the area grocery stores more closely than some folks check out the schools (lol).

The oven bag does retard crisping, but it keeps the meat sooo moist !

And clean-up is a breeze !

Remember to open carefully; there's gonna be a rush of "steam".....
