Directions
Kittencal’s Blasted Rapid Roast 2-Hour Whole Turkey, No more waiting around for hours for your turkey to cook, it will be cooked in a short time and with perfect results! this method will seal in juices to produce a juicy tender turkey, this is for unstuffed turkeys only and do not use this method for turkeys weighing over 16 pounds, cooking time is only estimated it will depend on the size of the turkey used — a 14-pound unstuffed turkey should be cooked in 1-1/2 hours, and a 16 pound turkey should be cooked in just under 1 75 hours — do *not* allow the water in your pan to evaporate or it will start to smoke, I advise to use your above-oven fan while cooking the turkey, and I strongly suggest to only use margarine for this since butter tends to scorch at high heat, if you are brining the turkey firstly then omit the salt — also see my recipe #221743, Don’t know why I made my turkey any other way! With 5 growing teens/young men & women in the house waiting for the turkey to be done used to be torture! Now, it’s not only done much faster, it turned out absolutely moist and delicious Kittencal thanks for another keeper! I can always count on you to post recipes that impress!, Help! This may have been asked and answered but can i stuff the turkey and still have this recipe work well? Thank you
