Cooking a whole turkey is a classic choice for festive occasions, and getting it right ensures a moist, flavorful centerpiece for your meal. Here’s a guide to cooking methods and timings based on the size of your bird.
For a whole, unstuffed turkey, cook it for 40 minutes per kilogram plus an additional 20 minutes. If the turkey is stuffed, add 5-10 minutes per kilogram.
| Weight | Cooking Time (Unstuffed) | Cooking Time (Stuffed) |
|---|---|---|
| 2 kg | 1 hour 40 minutes | 1 hour 50-55 minutes |
| 3 kg | 2 hours | 2 hours 10-15 minutes |
| 4 kg | 2 hours 40 minutes | 2 hours 55-3 hours |
| 5 kg | 3 hours 20 minutes | 3 hours 35-40 minutes |
| 6 kg | 4 hours | 4 hours 15-20 minutes |
| 7 kg | 4 hours 40 minutes | 4 hours 55-5 hours |
Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and rest it for 30-40 minutes, loosely covered with foil. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring the meat is moist and flavorful.
Enjoy your beautifully roasted turkey—it’s the ultimate showstopper!
