Description

Serving a perfect turkey for Thanksgiving or Christmas doesn't have to be difficult… our team of dedicated master butchers are proud to deliver a bird that's big on flavor without any of the stress of getting it right. Our premium 10 lb. turkeys are naturally juicy and sweet, accentuated with a brown sugar and honey baste that keeps things moist and adds to the flavor. Part of the secret of the guaranteed perfection is the included cooking bag - it insulates the turkey during cooking to create juicier meat while allowing the skin to crisp to the ideal texture. You'll also know exactly when it's done - a small pop-up timer is already in the turkey, so it'll tell you when it's time to take it out of the oven.

The whole package is delivered frozen from America's Original Butcher, ready to thaw in your refrigerator before the big day. You'll love the simple, easy-to-follow instructions and guaranteed tasty results. Don't forget to add plenty of freezer-to-oven, chef-approved side dishes to complete your holiday meal.

Preparation

Thaw completely in refrigerator 3-4 days or keeping turkey in vacuum sealed packaging, place in a sink full of cold water for 5-7 hours, changing the water approximately every 30 minutes.

OVEN: Preheat oven to 350ºF. Remove turkey from burlap and vacuum-sealed bag. Place turkey in cooking bag provided. Secure bag with twist tie. Place bag in deep roasting pan. Puncture 6 to 8 holes in top of bag with a fork. Turkey will take 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours to cook. For extra browning or crispiness, slit top of bag for the last 20-30 minutes of roasting. The turkey will be done when the internal temperature measured with a kitchen thermometer reaches 165ºF in the thigh.

Make simple gravy with the turkey drippings from the oven bag.

Turkey Gravy:

3 Tbsp Butter
3 Tbsp All Purpose Flour
2 cups Turkey Drippings, defatted
1 cup Water

In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add flour and stir using a whip to form a roux. Cook the roux for 2-3 minutes over low heat. Add turkey drippings and water to roux. Bring to a boil. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve. Makes approximately 1 quart.
