Ingredients: | A turkey | ||
Preparation: | Basically:
Cook turkey at 500 for a half hour. (Might set off smoke alarm.) Cover breast with foil triangle. Reduce oven to 350/375 (I forget, check the foodnetworks web site). Stick temperature probe in breast, set temperature alarm for 161. (The temp probe is great; you never need to open the oven and let out heat, you always know what temp the meat is at. The remote display also has a timer. Kitchen gadgets are cool!) Our turkeys usually took another 2.5 to 3 hours. Having the probe in the breast means the breast is done perfect! |

Notes: | One of my favorite shows is Good Eats with Alton Brown. I dig the way
he explains the "science" behind cooking and he packs a lot of information in a half hour show. Anyway, we've had great success with his method. |
