Turkey questions

RRog17 · November 2014

I have a 10 lb. bird, but have never cooked one. I have a few questions. 1) approximately how many mins. per lb. & what temp do I cook it to? 2) is 350 indirect ok? 3) upright on a stand or laying in a roasting rack? Any other tips will be greatly appreciated!

I wish I could offer you advice, but I am a newbie also. if you check any of my posts you will quickly discern that I don't know sh#t from a tree about cooking.

It is going to take about 3-3-1/2 hours to cook. You want to cook it until it is at 150-155 degrees internal. Remove from cooker and put in cooler covered and juices will go back into the meat and temp will rise to 160 in the breast and 175 to 180 in the thigh. You should have it in the Brine solution already so it will be nice a juicy when you eat it.
