How To Roast Turkey: a Tasty, Easy, Juicy Recipe

Brian Smith

Report

Make a perfect roasted turkey that was tasty, easy, and juicy for Thanksgiving. This turkey is seasoned with a rosemary and garlic dry brine. The breast, thigh, and drumsticks all cooked evenly with a two-stage roasting method. Note that you will need to change the oven temperature after the first 30 minutes from 425°F to 325°F.

Notes

I pulled my turkey out of the oven when the thigh temperature was 172°F and tented it with foil shiny side down for 30 minutes to rest and continue cooking (the pop-up thermometer popped while the turkey was resting). The thigh bone was slightly pink but the thigh meat was juicy and perfectly cooked.
