If turkey has salmonella how long must you cook to kill it?
Most meats do have small traces of Salmonella and other bacteria or microbes present, which is normal. To kill these, it is not so much a matter of how long to cook the turkey, but how hot the meat must get. The food-safe internal temperature of any size whole turkey, is 1700F / 770C (without stuffing), and 1800F / 820C (with stuffing). Some health authorities also now recommend cooking the stuffing separately, for safety reasons, to a temperature of 1650F / 740C.If you are concerned that the bacteria load of your meat is so high that cooking it will not kill the bacteria, do not use it. When in doubt, throw it out.
Why must stuffing be cooked seperately?
The FDA recommends cooking stuffing separately from the turkey because the interior of the body cavity doesn't reach a high enough temperature to kill bacteria, which may cause food poisoning when the stuffing is eaten. If you try to remedy the problem by cooking at a higher temperature, the meat becomes dry and overcooked. Therefore, the recommended solution is to cook the stuffing in a separate casserole dish.

Do you cook seafood before making seafood stuffing?
This would depend on what kind of stuffing you are making, whether or not it is the instant stuffing (IE: Stovetop) or homemade. It also depends on whether or not you plan on making it separately, or stuffing the turkey with it. If you are using an instant stuffing, it is wise to make it last, as it only takes approximately 5 minutes to prepare. If you are making homemade stuffing, it is wise to prepare your bread crumbs in advance, so they have time to harden. If you are stuffing a turkey, prepare the stuffing mix prior to stuffing the turkey, then place it in the turkey's cavity. Please be advised that special precautions should be taken when doing this, as a turkey that has been stuffed, when improperly or incompletely cooked, can give additional rise to food borne illnesses.

What is better for you in the bird stuffing or out of the bird stuffing?
Stuffing out of the bird is better--it doesn't soak up the fat from the turkey as it is roasting. Also, if it is baked separately in a casserole you have a better chance of it being properly cooked through. If done in the turkey, there is the chance it will not be thoroughly cooked.
