As a general cooking proposition, I'd agree, but to me, pretty much all turkey -- including turkey that has been cooked well -- tastes dry, smoked and deep fried being the exceptions. It is just by nature a drier meat than I like. And I'm going to agree with BraveMaroon, too:

I think it's pretty well-established now that different people sometimes taste foods differently. I guess I just didn't get good turkey buds.

If I'm hosting, we shoot for about 4, and end up sitting down around 4:45.

My parents are more of the 2:30 or 3PM range.
We've usually been in the 1:00 to 1:30 range. Supper would be a light, pick-up kind of meal.
