Cleaning Your Turkey
The next step to a great tasting turkey is cleaning it.
First remove original wrapper and remove the neck and giblets from the inside cavity. The giblets are usually removed and placed in a plastic bag prior to sale.
Second, thoroughly rinse the entire bird including the inside cavity. I would recommend washing the bird twice, just to be sure.
Third, make sure that the turkey is completely drained and blot dry with paper towels.
If you would like to stuff the turkey, now is the time to do so. Here are a few stuffing recipes if you'd like to make your own.
Next, return legs back to tucked position, if untucked and place a oven-safe meat thermometer into the deepest part of the thigh. If you are using an instant read thermometer, use when it is time to check for doneness.
Finally, brush with oil to protect drying of the skin.
