That turkey is way too big.
I recommend sticking to 14 lb'ers in the future, you can do 2 instead and they will cook better and be more moist in the end.
Completely thaw the turkey and carefully cut it in half. Alton Brown has some advice on this, if you can find it on Foodnetwork.com....but basically, get a super sharp knife. Start at the breastbone, cut through that, then cut through one side of the back bone. You can also remove the legs and wings and cook them separately. Place in a large pan or roaster (or 2, the whole thing probably won't fit in one). Season with desired seasonings (my fav is salt, pepper, sage butter, and a half maple/half water baste and some bacon grease.). Cook as usual. May want to use some foil to help with even cooking.
This response is probably way late but hope you had a happy holiday regardless.
