Turkey in Convection Oven

Timing Guide for Convection Roasting

The timing we have established for roasting turkeys in Convection is based on the following criteria:
Letting the turkey sit outside of the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours.
Cooking the turkey without stuffing.
Roasting the turkey on a rack in a shallow pan with the legs swinging free.
Cooking the turkey in the Convection Roast mode at 400 degrees for 20 minutes then reducing the temperature to 350 degrees/375 for large capacity ovens, for the remainder of the cooking time.
Cook the turkey to an internal temperature of 160-170 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh and allow it to rest for 20 minutes prior to carving, in this time the internal temperature rises to 180 degrees.
