turkey is done, remove stuffing to casserole and
continue to cook stuffing.
Techniques
• Roast poultry on rack level 2 or 3. For very large
turkeys use rack level 1.
• Use the 2-piece broil pan that comes with your oven.
Place poultry directly on top of the grid for better
browning. Place turkeys larger than 20 pounds on a
rack in the lower part of the broil pan.
• When roasting whole chickens or turkey, tuck wings
behind and loosely tie legs with kitchen string.

• Do not truss the legs of an unstuffed bird.
• Shield ends of legs, wing tips, bony parts of the breast
and any thinner parts with foil during the first half of the
roasting to prevent over-cooking.
• For juicer breast meat, start breast side down. Shield
only the legs, wings and thin parts.
• Check 30 minutes before the estimated minimum
roasting time for doneness. Juices will run clear and
the drumstick (on whole birds) will move freely when
poultry is done.
• Roasting bags are suitable to use in this mode.
