JUICY THANKSGIVING TURKEY

Juicy Thanksgiving Turkey image

My grandmother and mother passed this recipe on to me. It changes just a little every year, because we've never written it down before. But it is always incredibly juicy and succulent!

Categories Meat and Poultry Recipes Turkey Whole Turkey Recipes

Time 3h20m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

2 tablespoons dried parsley
2 tablespoons ground dried rosemary
2 tablespoons rubbed dried sage
2 tablespoons dried thyme leaves
1 tablespoon lemon pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 (15 pound) whole turkey, neck and giblets removed
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 orange, cut into wedges
1 onion, chopped
1 carrot, chopped
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 (750 milliliter) bottle champagne

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a turkey roaster with long sheets of aluminum foil that will be long enough to wrap over the turkey.
Stir together the parsley, rosemary, sage, thyme, lemon pepper, and salt in a small bowl. Rub the herb mixture into the cavity of the turkey, then stuff with the celery, orange, onion, and carrot. Truss if desired, and place the turkey into the roasting pan. Pour the chicken broth and champagne over the turkey, making sure to get some champagne in the cavity. Bring the aluminum foil over the top of the turkey, and seal. Try to keep the foil from touching the skin of the turkey breast or legs.
Bake the turkey in the preheated oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear. Uncover the turkey, and continue baking until the skin turns golden brown, 30 minutes to 1 hour longer. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the turkey from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.

Ingredients

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Pull the neck and giblets out of the cavity; ditch the liver and save the rest of the giblets for gravy. Dry the turkey with paper towels, then season inside and out with salt and pepper. Fill the turkey with aromatics like chopped onions, carrots, apples and herbs, then place breast-side up in a roasting pan and brush with melted butter. Tent with foil and roast for 2 hours (for a 10- to 12-pound turkey; add an extra 15 minutes per pound for larger birds). Remove the foil, baste with more melted butter and crank the oven to 425 degrees F. Roast for another hour or until the meat at the thigh registers 165 degrees F. Let rest while you make the gravy.

21 THANKSGIVING TURKEY RECIPES FOR YOUR HOLIDAY MENU

From thespruceeats.com

Air Fryer Turkey. Whether you are hosting a smaller Thanksgiving or just want to enjoy roast turkey any time of year, try our genius air fryer turkey recipe.
Country Fried Turkey. If you love fried chicken then you’ll want to try this crispy, flavorful, and moist fried turkey for Thanksgiving, or any special occasion when you need to wow a crowd.
Pavochón (Puerto Rican Roasted Turkey) Roasting a turkey (pavo) for Thanksgiving in the manner of a suckling pig (lechón) is a time-honored tradition in Puerto Rico, where roast suckling pork is the most common holiday meat.
Turducken. Turducken is a true showstopping main course for Thanksgiving dinner. The term "turducken" is a combination of the words "turkey," "duck," and "chicken," as the dish consists of a chicken stuffed inside a duck that's then stuffed inside a turkey.
Smoked Whole Turkey on the Grill. Do you love the taste of smoked turkey but don't have a smoker? No problem. You can use a gas or charcoal grill to slow-roast a well-brined turkey and infuse it with tons of smoky goodness thanks to the magic of hickory chips.
Brined and Roasted Turkey Breast. This turkey breast is flavorful and moist thanks to the simple brine of water, salt, brown sugar, and spices. You should plan ahead as the turkey breast needs to sit in the brine overnight or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
Spatchcock Turkey. Butterflying a turkey to remove the backbone is a clever way to ensure evenly browned, crispy skin. You can also cook a whole turkey faster with the spatchcocking method, helping the white and dark meat to cook evenly, without drying out, so you get a juicy bird.
Beer-Basted Turkey. When you're stocking the beer fridge for Thanksgiving, set aside a couple of bottles of your favorite ale for the turkey. Basting your (stuffed or unstuffed) bird with beer and butter is an unfussy way to maximize the flavor of this essential holiday main.
Instant Pot Turkey Breast. Hosting an intimate holiday dinner this year? Our Instant Pot turkey breast recipe will make your Thanksgiving meal prep a breeze.
Thanksgiving Roast Turkey. If you have never roasted a turkey before, you will want to consult these essential tips for cooking a whole bird either with or without stuffing.
