Cooking instructions — unstuffed turkey

Remove packaging and any giblets from the cavities. Do not wash the turkey.

Preheat your oven to 180°C / 160°C fan / Gas Mark 4.

Place breast-side up in a roasting tin, rub with butter or oil, season and loosely cover with foil. Cook stuffing separately.

Allow approximately 35 minutes per kg: 4 hours 5 minutes for 7 kg, or 4 hours 40 minutes for 8 kg. Remove foil for the final 30 minutes to brown.

Check the thickest parts of the breast and thigh with a clean meat thermometer, avoiding bone. They must reach 75°C for at least 30 seconds. Continue cooking if needed—timings are only a guide.

Rest loosely covered for 30 minutes before carving.

Always follow the cooking instructions supplied with your turkey. Keep refrigerated and use by the date shown.
