Here’s how I roast my turkey every year! Comment “turkey” for the detailed recipe and I’ll send it to you! 🍗🦃

1. For a fresh turkey set your fridge to 33°F for the week. Frozen turkey? Thaw 24 hrs per 4–5 lbs in the fridge.
2. Gather your tools: Roasting pan + rack, kitchen twine, and a digital thermometer.
3. Prep the turkey: Remove giblets, pat very dry, and tuck the wing tips under.
4. Dry brine: Salt, Baking Powder + Brown sugar. I like to add a little baking powder (1 tsp per 1 Tbsp salt) for extra-golden skin. Rub all over + under the skin. Refrigerate overnight or for 2 nights!
5. Make a butter-herb paste: Blend softened butter with herbs in a food processor. Rub under the skin + all over the turkey.
6. Add aromatics: Fill the cavity with onion, apple, pepper, thyme, and rosemary.
7. Tie the legs: Use kitchen twine so the turkey cooks evenly.
8. Add broth to the pan: Pour 3-4 cups broth and white wine into the bottom of the roasting pan.
8. Roast: Start at 450°F for 20-30 minutes, then cover with foil and drop to 350°F.
10. Check the temp: 165°F breast / 170–175°F thigh
11. Rest: Let the bird rest 20–30 minutes before carving.
12. Garnish + serve: Use drippings for gravy and garnish the platter with herbs + citrus.
