 Hi, I'm Elise from SixSistersStuff.com and today I'm going to show you how to cook a turkey in a convection oven. And I know with Thanksgiving coming up that so many people are intimidated about cooking a turkey. And I'll admit I've had my fair share of turkey mishaps, but ever since I started using my convection oven it has made it a million times easier and I haven't had any issues. So, to start out I had a frozen turkey and it's been thawing in my fridge for about two days and there's some tips in this post about thawing a turkey if you have questions on them. But after it was thawed I rinsed it off, removed everything from the inside and patted it dry with paper towels and then put it on a roasting pan. And then I just got some vegetable oil, this is about a fourth cup and I just brush it on the outside and this will give your turkey a nice crispy crust that leaves the inside really moist and juicy, which is what you want. So after you've brushed it along the outside of the turkey, you can use as little or as much as you want. I've just cut the skin back in between the turkey breast and the skin is where you're going to put your seasonings and I'm just using some rosemary and thyme, I just have a few sprigs of each and you just rub them between the skin and onto the turkey breast and that'll add a nice white or two turkey and it'll make it smell absolutely amazing. So while I'm rubbing that in, I just wanted to say the best thing about using a convection oven for cooking a turkey is that you don't have to baste it, I just remember my mom spending all Thanksgiving in and out of the kitchen, getting everything ready, basting the turkey every so often that the convection oven will crisp up the outside and seal in the inside because the outside will be nice and seared so it'll stay nice and juicy and make your life so easy you'll never go back. So after those seasonings are in, just fold the skin back down and I've got my convection oven always preheated to 350 degrees on the pure convection setting and my turkey is a 9 to 10 pound turkey and so I'm going to cook it about 2 to 2 and a half hours, we'll be back. Okay my turkey cooked for about 2 and a half hours and it reached an internal temperature of 180 degrees so at that point take your turkey out of the oven and let it rest for about 10 to 15 minutes just so you don't lose any of the juices or the moisture inside the turkey and also your turkey will continue to cook. So at that point you're ready to eat and so thanks for stopping by and for this and other great recipes you can check out 6sistersstuff.com.
