How long do you cook a 12.75 turkey?
Cooking times for turkeys can vary depending on the method used, temperature, and the specific turkey itself. However, as a general guideline, for a 12.75 lb. turkey, you can approximate the cooking time as follows:
- Conventional oven:
- Unstuffed: Approximately 3-3.5 hours at 350°F (177°C)
- Stuffed: Approximately 4-4.5 hours at 350°F (177°C)
- Crock-Pot:
- Unstuffed: Approximately 7-9 hours on the "low" setting
- Stuffed: Approximately 8-10 hours on the "low" setting
- Smoker:
- Approximately 4-6 hours at 225-250°F (107-121°C)
It's important to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh, which indicates that it's safe to eat. Be sure to check the temperature in multiple places to ensure even cooking.
