Tips:
- Thaw the turkey completely before cooking. This will ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the turkey is cooked to the proper internal temperature. The safe internal temperature for poultry is 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the turkey rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the turkey, resulting in a more flavorful and moist bird.
- Use a variety of fruits in your stuffing. This will add flavor and moisture to the stuffing.
- Don't overstuff the turkey. This can make the turkey difficult to cook evenly.
- Baste the turkey with butter or oil throughout the cooking process. This will help to keep the turkey moist.
- Make sure that the turkey is cooked through before serving. Undercooked turkey can be dangerous to eat.
