The ONLY Way I Will Cook A Turkey! | The Neighbors Kitchen

Today I'm going to show you how to spatchcock, season, and cook a turkey and win over everyone at Thanksgiving! I also make some gravy from scratch - a fantastic addition to your Thanksgiving spread. Thank y'all for hanging out with me today and thanks for watching!

The Turkey:

1) Begin by spatchcocking the turkey (see video for instructions) 12-14 lb turkey used in video
2) Coat all surfaces of turkey with kosher salt on a baking sheet with rack
3) Spread seasoning (see below for recipe) evenly over top of salt layer
4) Let sit in fridge on baking sheet with rack for MINIMUM 3 hours, but preferably overnight
5) Remove turkey from fridge for about 30 minutes before placing in oven, during this period preheat oven to 425 degrees
6) I prefer to use a digital thermometer probe, but you can use the built-in pop-out thermometer, this 12-14 lb turkey took 90 minutes to cook the internal temperature to 165 degrees fahrenheit.
7) Once internal temperature has been reached, remove the turkey from the oven and let rest for 30 minutes before carving
8) Carve your turkey better than I do 🤣
9) Enjoy and share thanks 🙏 with your friends and family
