Rest time is that period after heating where the food continues to cook or self-baste. The food may even reach a point 10 degrees hotter than it was when it was removed from the heat source.

Typically, a turkey after cooking for 3.5 hours is rested for 30 minutes. This allows the juices to permeate and the meat/stuffing time to reach its final, serving temperature.
