Stop hunting for that roasting pan you never use! This Thanksgiving turkey with a simple gravy made from the drippings requires nothing more than a trusty rimmed baking sheet and a wire rack that fits inside. Give the bird plenty of time to dry-brine in the refrigerator—at least 24 hours and up to 2 days—for maximum flavor. Once you get roasting, a 12–14-lb. turkey will need only about 2 hours (plus 30 minutes of resting time) to turn golden brown and perfectly moist.
