How do you know when the turkey is cooked?

Answer 1

You can buy a turkey with a little red "pop-up" that lets you know when its done. Better still is to buy a meat thermomiter. It wll tell you what temperature to use on different kinds of meat and poultry that you cook. You can get one for just a few bucks at a Walmart, Kmart, etc.

Answer 2

with a fork.You must put the fork deep in the meat of the turkey and remove it. If the fork come easy out and some white fluid come out of the turkey meat than it is done.If the fork comes out with difficulty and the fluids are dark or bloody then the turkey must be cocked again.

Answer 3

To check if a turkey is fully cooked, you should insert a meat thermometer into both the white and dark meat areas of the bird. The thermometer should read at least 165 degrees F. Another good rule of thumb is to make sure the juices running from the turkey are clear, not pink.
