In lieu of turkey drippings, try chicken broth. I do this every Thanksgiving or any time I wish to make giblet gravy. Canned chicken broth is okay, but boiling a chicken with some onions and salt is better. Here's how I do it: Boil a few chicken thighs for about an hour. Meanwhile, boil an egg. Melt about half a stick of butter in a saucepan. Add about 1/3 cup of flour to the butter and mix well. Slowly add the chicken broth, stirring constantly. I usually add about 1/4 cup at a time. Continue adding broth until your gravy is the right consistency. Grate the boiled egg into the gravy. Take one of the chicken thighs and chop up the meat finely. Use this instead of giblets (tastes better anyway!)

Should we add broth in bottom of turkey roaster while it is cooking?
Broth is not necessary. A bit of water in the bottom the pan under the roasting rack will do the same thing. It prevents the turkey fat from burning to the bottom of your roaster, and it will make an excellent broth on it's own. No need to have an added expense. If you are not making giblet gravy, you can make your gravy with the "pan drippings" in the roaster. It's a better flavor, especially if you take the time to deglaze the pan..all that wonderful turkey bit in the bottom makes better gravy.
