What Is The Best Turkey Cooking Temperature?
Posted on June 14th, 2008 by admin
If you’ve ever had turkey at a thanksgiving dinner, but found it dry or bland, then this article may help you understand why. Sometimes it is simply down to the flavoring they used, but often it is down to the way the turkey was cooked - either it was not basted properly, or often enough, or it was cooked at the wrong temperature.
Some people mistakenly cook a turkey at too high a temperature, and keep it in for far too long - this can leave you with a turkey that is very dry and over cooked. While this has a less than ideal taste, it is better than the alternative - an undercooked turkey, and food poisoning.
