How hard is it to make turkey?

[dDonald]

I went through a Thanksgiving dinner and a person cooked a big turkey and fed about eight of us. It was so good and moist
what is the secret to cooking a great turkey and how hard is it for me to make it at home myself? do I need an oven to cook 1

cooking a turkey in the oven takes a lot of skill and practice

i've never done it before myself but i would imagine you should watch some youtube videos

To MAKE Turkey you need a mummy Turkey and a Daddy Turkey.

Or you can always COOK one

Don't bother cooking, buy ready one, much better taste

i would watch your relative who is cooking and learn from them hands on. ask them if you can help them

BS. It's a price of piss.

Is there a generation of idiots growing up who can't actually cook? Cos it sure seems like it. The irony of asking on a BB/PED site yet being incapable of looking up a YouTube video and LEARNING how to cook by following simple instructions.

Heck they come from the supermarket with instructions on the label.

The REAL issue is those that think they can't cook really suffer from impatience. Cos a big ass family size Turkey takes HOURS.

Nope. Unless you're a bad cook then yep.

I have stated (Facebook recently) that the availability of luxury food is greater now than ever before. Some of the food many supermarkets have offered this year have been fkin stunning - King Arthur Rib Sirloin... wow.

But if you can learn to cook and know your meat then you can and will learn to make a much BETTER tasting Turkey (or any other food) cos it'll be just how you want it to be.

Start real basic and get that right.
