Archibald Rutledge roasted turkey

[Ground swatter]

Hello, I read in one of Archibald Rutledge's books a story about him trying to kill a old gobbler that was hanging around his rice fields. There was another guy sneaking around trying to kill the same gobbler. In the story he mentions roasted wild turkey stuffed with peanuts and lined with sweet potatoes. Anybody know anything about a recipe like this?? I would like to try it as sort of a tribute to the old days. I've looked everywhere I know to look and don't see anything like this. Thanks for the help!

I remember reading that too and being curious...good post and hoping someone has taken it a step further and tried it

Is it possible it was pecans and not peanuts? If so I found a recipe.
