How to Cook a Frozen Butterball Turkey

Step 1: Unpack and Prep

  1. Remove the turkey from the outer packaging.
  2. Run the turkey in its inner packaging under cold water for one minute, massaging the turkey as needed.
  3. Place the turkey in a 3-inch deep roasting pan.
  4. Use the grip and tear at the bottom of the bag to remove the turkey from the inner packaging.

Step 2: Season (Optional)

While the turkey is pre-seasoned, you can add your own personal touch with herbs, spices, or a simple salt and pepper rub.

Step 3: Roast

Preheat your oven to 325°F. Place the turkey breast-side up in the roasting pan and roast according to the instructions on the packaging. The cooking time will vary depending on the weight of the turkey.

Step 4: Check for Doneness

Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey. The turkey is done when the thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reaches 170°F.

Step 5: Rest and Carve

Let the turkey rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful turkey.
