I will never understand why we eat such a boring food as the main dish on a holiday we celebrate by eating.
That said this will hopefully be the most normal Thanksgiving I've had since 2018. My grandpa died on Thanksgiving 2019 and then last year was uhh...last year. ... Copied to Clipboard!

You are cooking it incorrectly.
Stuffing is a side that should not be cooked in the turkey. Gravy is for mashed potatoes. FOH ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just ate some turkey at my parents' house. My dad used a grill (I think it's gas, but he mentioned charcoal), and the bird came out tasty. It's all down to the preparation.

Turkey only comes out dry if the person cooking it doesn't really know what they're doing. It also doesn't have to be bland - that is once again a sign of lacking skill in the cooking department.
A lot of the things people think they know about cooking turkey is wrong. You should never stuff it or baste it. You should also look into marinades and seasonings for turkey. People tend not to since it's such a big bird, but you can add flavor. Also, as pointed out, dark meat, people. It always tastes better than the white meat. --- "If you ever feel good about yourself, just look on the Internet." - Ryan Reynolds ... Copied to Clipboard!

As a non-American but someone who has turkey in typical rotation for evening meals with several other meats... I'm inclined to agree with OP. Can Turkey be good? Sure, but pretty much any other meat I've had is better on average.
"It depends on how you prepare it" feels irrelevant, because you can say that about pretty much any food. What I know is that the best turkey dish I've ever had doesn't hold a candle to the best pork/beef/lamb/chicken dish I've had. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Sure, but pretty much any other meat I've had is better on average."it depends on how you prepare it" is a direct refutation of the universally stated and contentious statement that it's "bland and dry".

Sure, but pretty much any other meat I've had is better on average.It might feel irrelevant to you as a non-American, but certain cooking techniques that have been passed down as family tradition are cause for the bad turkey. Put aside the bland part, turkey shouldn't be coming out dry. When it does it's because it was cooked wrong, just like mom/grandma/g.grandma etc did it. The turkey I had this year was anything but dry and bland. --- "If you ever feel good about yourself, just look on the Internet." - Ryan Reynolds ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also was a bit premature on calling this normal. We're down to about 25% of the usual crowd we'd have here.

An actual premium buffet can be found at a casino or some hotels. They'll have all sorts of actually "premium" food, and usually a lot of seafood and decent cuts of meat.

A well-prepared turkey is pretty good, though. Any meat prepared improperly is going to be dry. Probably overcooked.

Turkey does suck and needs a lot of work to make good. It can be good, but compare it to literally any other meat, especially chicken. No one actually like turkey the best.
