Betty demonstrates how to make Butter-Basted Roast Turkey for Thanksgiving. This is a traditional entree for a Southern Thanksgiving table.
Ingredients:
10-pound uncooked turkey
1 stick butter, softened
salt to taste
sages leaves and cranberries for garnish (optional)
Remove turkey from packaging. Rinse and pat dry. Remove neck and giblets from inside of turkey and use for another purpose. Place turkey in a roasting pan that is slightly larger than the turkey. Use about half of the butter to coat the inside and outside of the turkey, turning as necessary. Salt the inside and outside of the turkey, to taste. Fold the turkey wings behind the shoulders and tie the legs together with string. Place lid on roasting pan and bake at 325 degrees (F) for about 3 ½ hours, or until thermometer reads 180 degrees (F) when inserted at the thickest part of the thigh. Throughout the cooking period, brush melted butter over top of turkey every ½ hour. About ½ hour before turkey is done, remove lid from roasting pan, in order for turkey breast to brown. Remove turkey from oven and transfer to large platter. Tent with aluminum foil for about 10 minutes. Reserve turkey broth for making Turkey Gravy, which will be the next video in Betty's Kitchen. Garnish Butter Basted Roast Turkey with fresh leaves of sage and whole cranberries, if desired. Place turkey on Thanksgiving table, ready for carving! Enjoy! Love, --Betty ♥♥♥
