The turkey was moist and tender. I started with a bed of carrots, celery, and onions, because when I hit the grocery store on Thursday night, the quart boxes of turkey stock were on sale for $1.49 apiece. I took it as a message. I seasoned the turkey breast with kosherr salt to start, and if I had it over again I'd use more. I mixed half a stick of butter with a couple cloves of minced garlic, some dried sage, some crushed rosemary and a bit of thyme and rubbed that on the turkey. In the instant pot (slow cooker setting) for four hours, then I pulled it out and let it rest under foil for about 20 minutes.

Looking forward to the soup tomorrow.
