Can we all get together and convince folks to stop trying to cook a turkey ... until the internal temp of the breast reaches °160 and the thighs reach °180." Let's face it - the bird is just not gonna come out this way unless you really REALLY pay attention and make lot's of mistakes along the way (translation - many many birds cooked poorly.) Instead - let's cut the white meat away from the dark - simple, not spatchcocked or butterflied, but cut each side through the ribs - and roast or fry or smoke the parts separately so's they cook appropriate to the meat. Maybe even at different cooking temps!
