Cooking a turkey is like a horror movie to me. We are here using the cold water method to defrost my turkey. Jesus, take the wheel. We remember the three ts. We talk about thawing, thermometer and tenting. After thawing your turkey, then youre ready to cook them. The open pan method is ideal. 325 from start to finish is the tried and true way that we love to prepare our turkey. Nicole and team butter ball recommend an open pan two inches or so on the sides with a flat rack to place your turkey on. Our coil of foil is simply ripping off some aluminum foil, scrunching it up like a snake and forming sort of an oval shape. That could substitute as a rack. I feel like most folks have foil in your kitchen. The only recommendation is using three to four large raw uncooked carrots and simply putting those in the bottom of your pan. Again, will help substitute for the rack. Butterball prebastes their turkeys. There is one thing you should do before baking your bird. If you have cooking spray or vegetable oil, youre going to simply brush the breast area. That just helps prevent the skin from drying out a bit. Both nicole and i have 12 pound birds which translates to 3 to 3 1 2 hours in the oven. The Meat Thermometer is going to register 170 in the breast for best eating quality. After your turkey has been in the oven for three quarters of cooking time. You may notice your breast starting to brown faster. Take a sheet of aluminum foil and tent or shield the breast area. That helps to prevent the breast from overbrowning. My turkey was captain america ready for the rest of its time in the oven. Okay. The alarm went off. Time to see how this turned out. Honestly, it looks pretty good. Thats all thanks to my turkey day teacher extraordinary nicole. Thank you. My compliments to the chef.
