    Roast Turkey

    Ingredients

    • Turkey

    Instructions

    • It has been our experience that the time it takes to roast a fresh turkey is considerably shorter than that of a frozen one. We urge you to use the 'Test for Doneness' (see below) at the shortest range, as various factors can affect the cooking time (i.e. ratio of bird-to-oven, initial temperature of turkey, varying temperatures in individual ovens). All times are based on a 325°F oven.
    • Remove turkey from packaging. Remove giblets and neck (save for other uses)
    • Rinse turkey with cold water ensuring not to forget the neck cavity. Pat dry both cavities and the outside of the turkey.
    • Tuck wing tips back. Stuff if desired. Do not stuff ahead of time, only just before cooking.
    • Draw neck skin over stuffing and secure to body, tie legs together or tucked-in position.
    • Place turkey, breast side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
    • For a crispy skin, slip hand between skin and breast and moisten with vegetable oil.
    • Season with Bloor Meat Market's House Spice or a low sodium seasoning.
    • Cover loosely with a tin foil tent, shiny side facing inward.
    • Roast turkey using the roasting instructions below , basting every 30-40 minutes
    • 'Test for Doneness' at the lowest time shown in your turkey's weight range
    • Remove foil during the last 45 minutes and baste 2-3 more times
    • Let stand 15 minutes before carving

      Roasting Instruction
      8lb-12lb - cook unstuffed turkey for: 2 1/4 - 3 1/4 hours and stuffed turkey for: 3 - 4 hours stuffed
      12lb-14lb - cook unstuffed turkey for: 3 -3 1/2 hours and stuffed turkey for: 3 1/2- 4 1/2 hours
      14lb-20lb - cook unstuffed turkey for: 3 3/4 - 4 1/4 hours and stuffed turkey for: 4 1/2- 5 1/4 hours
      20lb-24lb - cook unstuffed turkey for: 4 1/4 - 4 3/4 hours and stuffed turkey for: 5 - 5 1/2 hours

      Test for Doneness
      If using a meat thermometer, the temperature in the thigh should read 180-200°F. The stuffing should read 165°F. The leg should move easily when gently twisted. The breast meat should feel soft to the touch and the juices should run clear.
