Serving Size: Approximately 1 lb. per Person
Ingredients: Soaked & Salted USDA Organic Free-Range & Antibiotic-Free Turkey.
Recommended Cooking Instructions: Follow desired seasoning recipe. Preheat oven to 375°. Bake turkey uncovered on a roasting rack for 3-3 ½ hours (for a 12-18 Lb. Turkey). If stuffed the baking time increases to 3 ¾-4 ½ hours. Bake uncovered until the skin is a light golden color, and then cover loosely with a foil tent. During the last 45 minutes of baking, remove the foil tent to brown the skin. Basting is not necessary but will promote even browning and a very tender bird if done every 20 minutes or so. The only true test for doneness is the temperature of the meat, not the color of the skin. The turkey is done when the thigh meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°. To get an accurate reading, be sure that your thermometer is not touching the bone. If your turkey has been stuffed, it is important to check the temperature of the dressing; it should be 165°. When the turkey is done, remove from the oven and allow to stand for 20-30 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat and makes for easier carving. Please note that all turkey should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165° as listed on foodsafety.gov.
