Preheat the oven to 350. In a pot on the stove, melt the butter and add the tequila. You will need at least a pound of butter and a cup and a half of tequila, and you can add to it as needed.

Remember to take out any giblets or whatnot inside! Rinse the bird and pat it dry. Stuff it.

Season it heavily with salt, pepper, and garlic powder all over. Put it on a rack in a pan, breast up.

Put the turkey in the oven. Baste it every 30 minutes with the melted butter and tequila. Plan to cook it 20 minutes per pound, and plan to let it rest at least 20 minutes before carving.
