  • INGREDIENTS 1 cup kosher salt 2 tsp allspice 1 tsp cumin 1 tbsp black pepper 1/2 tsp clove 1 tsp thyme 1 tbsp ground sage 1 large 16 - 20 pound turkey, thawed 1/4 cup canola oil
  • You didn't say how long your baked it for at the 350 degree mark. My turkey is 20 pounds. How long would I continue to cook it for?

  • @rliles02 After 30 minutes, reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and roast until breast temperature is 161 degrees and thigh temperature is 180. for 20lb turkey about 3 hours. for 16lb turkey 2 hours.

  • @foodgizmo Thank you Thank you!!!! I am soooooo excited! First time I am having Christmas at my house and First time making my own Turkey!!!

  • @rliles02 Hi - Good luck to you. I know you will be a hit! One note that I am not sure I included. If you are using a turkey that has been pre-brined (butterball turkeys for example or turkey's with 7% solution) shorten the time you keep the turkey in the brine. So only brine the turkey for a day - otherwise it may be to salty. The longer duration are for fresh turkeys that haven't had any previous brining.

  • @foodgizmo Hi!!!! Just wanted you to know that the Turkey was a hit!!!!! It was everything you said it would be!!!! It was so easy and everyone said it was they best Turkey they have ever tasted!!! There was one down fall you did not tell me about!!!! That my sister's have now informed me that I am always in charge of the Turkey!!! lol!! Thanks again!!!

  • @rliles02 That is awesome. Yes, I did forget to mention that fact. I have been in charge of the turkey since I started doing this brining method. I am very glad it worked for you! Thank you so much for the feedback!

  • Great technique-- I will follow your example this year with a dry brine instead of the wet brine. Thanks!
