As such you can stuff your turkey, but the temperature precautions you'll have to observe makes it more trouble than it's worth.

As far as keeping it from getting too dry while cooking outside the bird, the trick is to use a generous amount of fat (butter, oil, lard, duck fat, etc) and don't overcook it.
