do the alias list as suggested and leave the "To:" blank.  Mutt will
send the posts with the "To:" field:

To: undisclosed-recipients: ;

I do this frequently when I do not want to broadcast the email
addresses.

It's done easier with a shell script. Like so:

for RECIP in addr1 addr2 addr3 ; do
mutt $RECIP < message.txt
done

Okay, unfortunately there is some more problem: I only want to see all of the 
recipients
only their own address. Not like when bcc is used and they will see the
address of the primary recipient.

Basically I want to sent a bunch of e-mails to a list of recipients (in
fact a press release). My hope was this could be done easily by an alias-list.

Any reason you can't just put the list in the Bcc list?  I'm not
understanding the problem you're trying to solve...

What isn't working about this?  The alias you gave should work, and if
you put it into the Bcc: field it should Bcc those addresses.  You can
do this either in your editor (with edit_headers set), or in the compose
menu.
