Whole Turkey

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Thirty minutes to an hour before roasting, take the turkey out of the fridge. Remove any packaging and the bag of giblets. Set the turkey breast-side up on the roasting rack and let it sit while the oven preheats. This takes the chill off the meat, which helps the meat cook faster and more evenly. It also gives the skin time to dry out, which promotes browning and crisping.
  2. Remove kidneys near the tail end of the bird as it will make the stuffing bitter
  3. Stuff the bird
  4. Preheat the oven to 450°F
  5. Pour two cups of broth or water into the roasting pan.
  6. Place the turkey in the oven and turn down the heat to 350°F.
  7. Roast the turkey for about 13 minutes per pound. Keep an eye on the turkey, when the breast meat is golden brown tent some tin foil and cover to turkey to prevent further browning
  8. Carve the turkey
