Does anyone have this recipe? It is where she stuffs the turkey with lemons and garlic and then puts herbed butter under the skin?

Thanks!

I'm with you, Pat! Ina Garen is a big fat nothing to me. How in the heck did she ever get herself on TV in the first place?

I love INA, she is the bomb! She might be chubby, but she's got a beautiful face and she makes good food. I think all of you are jealous cows. She's fun and if you don't get her humor, you don't make enough money

I agree with you! She's class, her recipes are fantastic and her style cannot be beat. Unlike some of those ridiculously silly "chefs" on Food Network (Rachael Ray comes to mind immediately), Ina is worth watching over and over again!

I can't stand her, but I cannot stop watching. I love the torture. My arteries clog up looking at the butter. This woman says: best olive oil, best pepper, best, best best..... She is so annoying. Just like Rachel Ray. At least the witch loves the media attention. Does anyone know why she is so guarded. She never does any type of specials. Wikipedia says there is so much secrecy about where she comes from. What is the big deal??? I think it's funny that these people want to start hiding after they become famous. Now if we could only make RR go away.

Well, hopefully someone can answer on her secrecy. Until next time, I'm off to make the goat cheese tart, and choco/orange mousse, mouse, whatever. haa haa

I think Ina is one of the best on Food TV. Her receipes are easy to follow and excellent. Here is the receipe I have for garlic and lemon chicken by her.
Lemon and Garlic Roast Chicken
Copyright, 2004, Ina Garten, All Rights Reserved
This recipe is available for a limited time only. Why?

Recipe Summary
Difficulty: Easy 
Prep Time: 20 minutes 
Cook Time: 1 hour 35 minutes 
Yield: 3 to 4 servings 

1 (5 to 6-pound) roasting chicken 
Kosher salt 
Freshly ground black pepper 
1 large bunch fresh thyme 
4 lemons 
3 heads garlic, cut in 1/2 crosswise 
2 tablespoons butter, melted 
1/2 pound sliced bacon 
1 cup white wine 
1/2 cup chicken stock

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Remove the chicken giblets. Rinse the chicken inside and out. Remove any excess fat and leftover pinfeathers and pat the outside dry. Place the chicken in a large roasting pan. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken. Stuff the cavity with the thyme, reserving enough thyme to garnish the chicken dish, 1 lemon, halved, and 2 halves of the garlic. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Cut 2 of the lemons in quarters and scatter the quarters and remaining garlic around the chicken. Lay the bacon slices over the chicken to cover.
Roast the chicken for 1 hour. Remove the bacon slices from the top of the chicken and set aside. Continue roasting the chicken for an additional 1/2 hour, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove to a platter and cover with aluminum foil while you prepare the gravy.
Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the bottom of the pan. Add the wine and chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, or until reduced by half.
Slice the chicken on a platter. Garnish the chicken platter with the bacon slices, roasted garlic, reserved thyme and 1 lemon, sliced. Serve with the gravy.

A little bit about Ina Garten:
In 1978, Ina Garten found herself working in the White House on nuclear energy policy and thinking, "There's got to be more to life than this!" She saw an ad for a small food store for sale in a place she'd never been: The Hamptons at the end of Long Island. She and her husband drove up to investigate and made the owner an offer on the spot. Two months later she found herself the owner of Barefoot Contessa, a 400-sq.-ft. specialty food store with employees.
Eighteen years later, Barefoot Contessa was a store that was celebrated both for its style and delicious food. In 1996, Ina sold the store to two employees who continued those traditions. At that time Ina wrote her first and overwhelmingly popular cookbook, The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook. In 2001 she published with her second book, Barefoot Contessa Parties!, followed by Barefoot Contessa Family Style in 2002, which contains easy recipes to make everyone feel like family. Barefoot in Paris, published in 2004, is about Ina's favourite simple French food.

In 2003, the owners of Barefoot Contessa, the food store, decided to close their doors and go on to new adventures. Ina continues to build the Barefoot Contessa traditions with new cookbooks, new television shows, and delicious products that reflect her love of entertaining friends and family.

Ina lives in East Hampton, New York and Southport, Connecticut with her husband Jeffrey, who is Dean of the Yale School of Management.

I am a huge fan have all of her books and they are great. She can be a little over the top with herself at times but none the less I think under it all she is a sweatheart.

I really do like Ina, but she is a bit hoity-toity. She's got bucks and she pretty much lets us know it. Giada likes to flaunt her wealth too. I don't need to know she's buying a pair of $700.00 shoes just because they're cute! Both of these women cook very well and I do enjoy watching them. Sandra Lee on the other hand; well, I won't even go there. Unlike some of you, I love Rachael. I think she's adorable inside and out and her dopey giggle and perkiness makes me smile.

What gets me is her fake laugh. But what I hate the most is how she wheezes and slurps her spital the food as she is cooking. It is so gross.

This broad is the more pretentious person on TV. She's hilarious -- note how she cooks for all her "friends," but then they never ask her to eat with them. Given her conversation skills, I'm not sure I would either.

You know, you are cruel and vicious people. Yes Ina's demeaner is a bit pretencious (OMG look at Martha Stewart!)But have you ever tried any of her recipes? They are fabulous! She is on the show because she can cook great meals. I'm a simple So. Cal. girl raised in a blue collar family, but I have developed a love of food and wine and appreciate what Ina and the other Chefs bring to the food chanel no matter how annoying some of them might be. I am not a jealous, mean spirited, petty, ingnorant person who has to hate someone because of their personality, or what they have. There is enough hatred for petty, ignorant reasons. Living in San Diego I have a lot of friends in the military and I have made going away and coming home dishes for these men and women who put their lives on the line all because of hate in the world.(and by the way one of Ina's dishes was by far the favorite and most requested dishes) Cooking is about community and sharing so please grow up and take your hate somehwere else!

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Leo

This is a great day for fixing things that have gone wrong. If there have been ructions in your relationship with a certain person this is when you can sort things out and get them back on track. If an appliance or gadget is going on the blink, this is your cue to either get it mended or chuck it out and replace it. You may also find time to tidy up your immediate surroundings or take all those bottles and papers to your nearest recycling center. How virtuous you'll feel when it's all done!
