General principles of cooking turkey in the sleeve
When buying a turkey, it must be remembered that boneless meat is only breast fillet, while in other parts, even if it says “thigh fillet” or something like that, in fact, there are thin flat bones.

Meat with bones (say, shoulder) is perfect for boiling broth, which will turn out tasty and fragrant. But for cooking turkey in the sleeve, those parts where there is more meat are better: the same breast fillet, parts from the thigh or leg. Not forgetting, however, about small bones!
With all its amazing qualities, the turkey in the sleeve is still dry. So it is better to marinate or nashig something before cooking. This will make the meat more tender and fragrant.
