Ingredients
- 1 12 Pounds (lb) whole turkey, thawed
- 0.25 Cups vegetable oil
- 5 Whole apples, cored and quartered
- 5 Pounds (lb) whole apples
Steps
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Unbind legs of turkey, if necessary. Pat turkey dry with paper towels. Place turkey into a roasting pan with a lid, and rub oil inside and outside the turkey.
- Stuff the body and neck cavity with apple quarters. Arrange whole apples around the turkey in the roasting pan. Scatter any extra apple quarters into the pan. Cover the roasting pan.
- Roast in the preheated oven until the skin is brown and the meat begins to separate from the legs, approximately 2 1/2 to 3 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the turkey breast should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). To further brown the skin, remove the lid during the last 20 minutes of roasting. Use pan drippings for gravy, if desired.
