how to make roaster turkey?

Answer 1

The roaster oven cooks a turkey in about half the time of a regular oven, but use a meat thermometer to make sure your turkey is thoroughly cooked. The roaster oven does not brown a turkey. The constant dripping of condensation from the cover of the roaster prevents the turkey from browning but also produces a turkey that is moist and juicy. If you want a turkey with browned skin, please use the Turkey Browning Sauce Recipe below.

14 to 18 pound fresh or thawed turkey
1 onion, cut in half
2 stalks celery
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup butter, melted

Remove the rack. Pour 1/2 cup water into the insert pan, cover and preheat to 325ºF. Remove giblets and neck from cavities of turkey. Rinse bird inside and out with cold water. Place onion and celery inside turkey. Rub outside with salt and pepper. Place on rack. Brush whole turkey with butter. Place in roaster. Cover and cook at 325ºF for 2 to 2-1/2 hours. Check meat thermometer reading. Continue cooking until meat thermometer registers 180ºF.

Turkey Browning Sauce
For turkey with a brown skin, use the following recipe before cooking:

1/4 cup melted butter or margarine
1-1/2 teaspoons browning sauce, like Kitchen Bouquet
1 teaspoon paprika

Wash turkey with cold water. Pat dry. Paint turkey with the browning mixture and cook as directed

Answer 2

im not sure i hope you meant roast turkey....depending on the size of the bird is how long you would roast it you can figure approx. 20 minutes to the lb... as an example we will take a 10 lb turkey you want to season it with salt and pepper and butter inside and out ...then place in a covered pan or cover with foil and place in a 350 oven for 2 hrs covered and 1/2 hr uncovered to brown the bird....during the process baste the bird every 30 minutes ...(that is taking the juices in the pan and pour back over the turkey.......that turkey i used is unstuffed....if it is stuffed add 1/2 hr....
