What say now :)

All the best :)

12 to 9 hours i think

Start cooking the turkey in a 400 degree oven to crisp up the skin. Then turn the heat down to 325 or so. You'll know the turkey is done when the thickest part (preferably the area around a bone) reaches 165 degrees internal temperature. That's the temperature that you're supposed to cook poultry to to kill off all the bacteria.

The turkey is done when you can twist the leg bone with ver little effort. It should twist out of the socket.
