Yes, this is an old fashioned slow cooking technique and it causes a very tasty bird. BTW it is finished at about 1:00 so the 2:00 serving time allows the bird to rest for carving. Don't worry this is a common method from the west/mid west. Very tasty bird-you will love it.

I don't like the idea of the turkey sitting for 4 hours before dinner...ick. I might make other plans.

Hmmm, that is a very strange method. I think that the turkey would be very overcooked and dry. Or she may be using a dangerous method of cooking at a very low temp which allows bacteria to grow and you could get very sick. Also a turkey should not sit out from 10AM to 2 PM. I think I would refuse the invitiation.
