The recommended temperature for cooking a turkey is 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the bird.
It's important to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the turkey has reached the correct temperature.
The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the turkey and the cooking method used.
For a 12-14 pound turkey, the estimated cooking time is 3-4 hours at 325°F (163°C).
To ensure that the turkey cooks evenly, it's recommended to baste it every 30 minutes.
Let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
