Roasting a turkey will depend upon the weight of your bird and the temperature used to cook it. On average a turkey takes about 13 minutes per pound to cook at 350 degrees F. We will be cooking our 11-pound bird at 325 degrees F so it takes closer to 15 minutes per pound. Make sure to use a meat thermometer to check on the turkey often starting about 1 hour before it should be finished as turkeys can often reach proper temp long before the estimated time.
