I don't have any info on cooking it in a wood cook stove, but I do have a tip on keeping it juicy. I haven't tryed doing this myself, but I have seen it done and tryed the turkey after. My mom's BF cooked a turkey in a brown paper sack. He got the turkey ready and put it in the brown paper sack (a big on from the grocery store) and put Dr. Pepper in the pan, he said you could use sprite too. He said that the bag soaked up the soda and broth from the bottom of the pan and kind of basted the turkey itself. I think he took it off during the last little bit of cooking time to let it brown. It was really good!
