not enough information how long it's going to stay in the oven at least an approximation

[keithsnow]

@Baderaaj that is tough to say...this bird was a bout 13 lbs and took about 3 hours...but it depends on size of bird, heat of the oven, type of oven, stuffed or not stuffed, temperature of bird before cooking etc... So I cannot give estimates like that because people will take the advice, then mess up their turkey and blame me...understand? and..with a thermometer an approximate time is useless..let the thermometer tell you when it's done..

hey chef one thing i found is that if you dont use a thermometer and you wait for the little button, since it will be dry you can inject it with butter, thats always what i've done and its tasted fine :)

@TryosWoW cool

This is a simple method for cooking a turkey, feel free to add herbs or other seasoning to the skin before cooking...the point here is to make sure the bird is not overcooked.

@keithsnow Is this is how you roast a turkey because my turkey is always dry.
