Drain the fruit, reserving the liquid. Cut half the butter into 1/2inch
pieces and combine with the fruit. Stuff cavity of the turkey with most of
the fruit. Place the turkey in a roasting bag, arrange remaining fruit on
top of the bird and pour reserved orange juiceliquor mix over it. Combine
remaining tequila and Grand Marnier. Have ready a basting syringe fitted

in a roasting pan and roast for 2 One half hours. Every 30 minutes open bag
(being careful to shield your face from steam) and inject more liquor,
eventually using it up. When ready to serve, slit open bag, arrange turkey
on a platter, and scoop out the fruit stuffing. Place all the fruit in a
serving bowl. Strain the juices that have accumulated in the bag, skim off
any fat, and serve in a gravy boat. Serves 8 to 10
