Time 6h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (10 pound) whole turkey, neck and giblets optional
salt and ground black pepper to taste
⅓ cup water, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
  • Season turkey with salt and pepper and place, breast-side down, in a roaster; add neck and giblets. Pour water into pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, basting as needed, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 6 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Continue to roast until meat falls off the bone if desired.

This recipe is a good starting point for roasted turkey, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I used a combination of butter and olive oil to brush the turkey, and I added some herbs and spices to the cavity. The result was a moist and flavorfu

I tried this recipe for the first time last year and it was a disaster. The turkey was dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I won't be trying this recipe again.

I thought the recipe was well-written and easy to follow. The turkey turned out moist and flavorful, but the gravy was a bit too thick for my taste.

Overall, this recipe was a success. The turkey was cooked evenly and had a crispy skin. The only downside was that the cooking time was a bit longer than I expected.
