Deep Pit Turkey. Wash and prepare turkey with salt and butter or olive oil. Stuff with Linguica (stick cut in half or thirds) Place in a plastic cooking bag (Turkey size). remove excess air and tie end off with fastener. Wrap turkey in cooking bag with several layers of heavy tin foil then place in a brown paperbag (sometimes it takes two to completely cover the package). Tie the package with string making sure you keep the package wrapped tight. Deep pit as usually or place in your oven at 200 degrees for 8-12 hours depending on size. The meat will be falling off the bone and will have a mild linguica favor. I serve both meats on the table for holidays. When you make a soup out of the turkey, the soup will also have that linguica favor. This is a new receipe that I have made a a family tradition.

It's A Portuguese American Cookbook, by (non-Portuguese) E. Donald Asselin, MD. the Forward and Preface seem to be missing from my copy, but I believe he was on the East Coast and much admired the food of the Portuguese community and so collected traditional recipes. Here is one for Portuguese Stuffing: Giblets from 2 or 3 chickens or turkeys2 minced onions1minced garlic clove3 beaten eggs8 slices toast, ground1/2 tsp cumin1 tbsp saffron1 tbsp parsley2 tbsp sage1tbsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper Boil giblets and save water. Fry giblets, chopped, with onion and garlic in butter. Add ingredients with enough broth to moisten. Some cooks put aside and freeze giblets until sufficient have accumulated. That's it. As you can see, it is basically "American" stuffing with Portuguese flavor. There is also a recipe for Transmontana Stuffing (has veal and pork) but my fingers are tired of typing. I have not tried this recipe! I've mainly used versions of the Easter Bread Recipes. The book was published in 1966 by The Charles Tuttle Company Inc. it has charming illustrations. You might find copies on used book sites if interested.

There is NO traditional turkey stuffing recipe that was "brought over" from the Azores or mainland Portugal, what there are are American stuffing recipes that have been modified by Portuguese-Americans in the East and West coast to include "Portuguese" ingredients and seasonings. Coincidentally, linguiça and chouriço do not have the prominence in every day meals in the Azores that they are given in the East coast. They're an occasional food.

I believe they used it on the islands to stuff roast chickens, but they did at one time raise turkeys on the farm in Salga. Pretty sure they ate them too!
