The video begins with a person washing a turkey under a faucet. The turkey is then placed on a wire rack in a roasting pan. The person then seasons the turkey with salt and pepper. The turkey is then placed in the oven and cooked at 500 degrees Fahrenheit for the first 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, the turkey is lowered to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and cooked for 20 minutes per pound. The video ends with the turkey being basted with melted butter.
