Instructions

- Rub the softened butter under and on top of the turkey skin.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the turkey on top of the butter.
- Pour the water into the crock pot and place the turkey in the crock pot.
- Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F when the thermometer is inserted into the thickest part of the turkey.
- Carefully remove the turkey from the crock pot and place it on a baking sheet or roasting pan.
- Melt the remaining butter mixture and use a basting brush to brush it on the outside of the turkey.
- Broil the turkey for 5-10 minutes to brown the turkey.
- Remove from the oven. Let the turkey rest for 10-15 minutes and then it’s ready to slice, serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to make sure that the turkey is cooked through before removing it from the crock pot.
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5-6 days.
