Beck & Bulow!
I’m beyond flattered with this review of my Turkey recipe! I love your tip to cook it ahead of time and reheat it in the crock pot. I’m also VERY impressed with your site and products! Can’t wait to try some of your amazing meats! Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and share this review. You made my day!
Sincerely,
Norine

This turkey recipe turned out fantastic! I did decide to cook it a couple of days early and just took all the meat off the bones and stored it in a giant zip lock bag with the broth. Put it in the crockpot on Thanksgiving day. Son in law said it was the best turkey he had ever had and please visit us: https://www.beckandbulow.com

Hi Stacy!
Yes the cooking times will vary. If you are stuffing the Turkey be sure to cook it for 15 minutes per pound and then add about a half hour. The reason for adding time is because this recipe calls for a lot of basting and that means the oven door being open and the temp coming down and heating back up. If you have a meat thermometer test the Turkey in the thigh, not touching the bone, the internal temp should reach 165°. Stuffing can be made without the sausage. Add an extra 2-3 tablespoons of melted butter to compensate for the fat loss in the sausage. The gravy recipe is on the blog. Search under Homemade Turkey Gravy. Hope that helps. Enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner!! I just started brining my Turkey. It’s gonna be great.
Love,
Norine

In reply to Stacy Baldwin. @norine@norinesnest.com, hi I had to get a15 lb. The 22lb didn't fit in the mr Rudolph roaster I ordered from Amazon. Will that change cooking times? Also how do I make the gravy? And can I use stuffing recipe and leave out the sausage? Thanks!

Hi Stacy!
I cook my Turkey in the Oven…but use the insert from my electric roaster because I always buy the BIGGEST Turkey I can find, and it fits really well in that roasting pan! If you have any other questions please feel free to ask. This recipe is worth every single bit of effort! It is the most tender and moist Turkey EVER…and the flavor is mind blowing good!
Happy Nesting and Happy Thanksgiving!
