Bought a few birds on sale. Trying to perfect a turkey recipe before thanksgiving.
What are your turkey secrets?

Be sure to brine.
Rub with oil or butter then hit it at 500 for 30 minutes. Then drop to 350 until the breast hits 155. Cover the breast tightly with foil to prevent it from overcooking.
Comes out perfect every year.

I switched to dry brining three years ago, and I will never go back to a wet brine.
I bought a heritage breed turkey this year. I'm embarrassed by how much I paid for it. We'll see if it was worth it or not.

....he lost me when he said no resting and his desire to cook for appearance over taste.

Always rest
Find a brine you like. Experiment dry or wet, whatever you want to do.
Cook it exactly like I said and it will be perfect

I've actually heard from a Chef to rest a turkey for as long as it's been cooking

I'm not that extreme. But I tend to rest for 30 minutes or so

Brine.
That is all. Brine that bird.

We goto Trader Joe's for brined turkeys and I put them in the kamado, no wood.
They come out awesome. Let the bird rest for about 45 minutes.

Really considering sous vide a whole small bird.
Debone to the legs & wings.
Brine for 48 hrs
shoot it up and vacuum sealing for another 24-48
sous vide for about 24 hours
finish on a high heat grill over hickory to brown the skin
let rest for an hour then carve up and place around my show bird.
I will keep yall posted as to how this turns out. May have to do a trial run.
