How It Works
General rule: 13-15 minutes per pound for unstuffed, 15-18 minutes per pound for stuffed.
Tips & Best Practices
- •Always use a meat thermometer. The turkey is done when the thickest part of the thigh reads 165°F (74°C).
- •Let the turkey rest for 20-30 minutes before carving to lock in juices.
- •Cooking stuffing inside the bird is safer if you verify the stuffing also reaches 165°F.
