How many minutes per lb for turkey at 325 degrees?
You're asking about cooking time for a turkey, which depends on its weight and whether it's stuffed or unstuffed. Here's a general guideline:
Unstuffed Turkey
* 10-12 minutes per pound at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Stuffed Turkey
* 15-18 minutes per pound at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
Important Notes:
* Always use a meat thermometer to ensure the turkey is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit for the breast and 180 degrees Fahrenheit for the thigh.
* Cooking time can vary depending on the size and shape of the turkey, as well as your oven.
* Start checking the temperature early to avoid overcooking.
* Rest the turkey for 15-20 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Example:
For a 12-pound unstuffed turkey, you would cook it for approximately 120-144 minutes (10-12 minutes per pound).
Remember, these are just estimates. Always check the turkey's internal temperature to ensure it's fully cooked.
