Stuffed Whole Turkeys
Turkeys needs thawing. Wash brid then stuff with your favorite stuffing. Just follow these simple instructions for a perfectly roasted turkey:
Preheat oven to 325° F. Hold under running water and remove giblets, neck, and gravy packets. Place turkey on flat rack in a shallow roasting pan, 2 to 2½ inches deep.
Brush or spray skin lightly with vegetable or cooking oil for best appearance.
Cover neck and exposed stuffing with foil to prevent over-browning. Place turkey in pre-heated oven.
When turkey is about ¾ done, loosely cover breast and top of drumsticks with a piece of foil to prevent overcooking.
After about 3 hours, insert an oven-safe thermometer deep into the thigh without touching the bone.
Begin checking the turkey for doneness about 30 minutes before the recommended cook time.
Your turkey is done when the temperature with a meat thermometer is 180° F in thigh and 165° F in breast or stuffing.
Lift turkey onto platter and let stand for 15 minutes before carving.
