What to do when the pop up timer on the turkey did not pop up?

When turkey cooking, for safety and doneness the internal temperature, as registered on a meat thermometer, must reach a minimum of 165 degrees, though most cooks will prefer up to 180 F degrees in the thigh. The center of the stuffing should reach 165 F degrees in the cavity, and the center of the breast is done at 165 to 170 degrees. There are several ways to determine if the thanksgiving turkey or chirsitmas turkey is cooked through, but the turkey pop up timer is the cheapest and effective one. As a suggestion, you can use two 165 F or 170 F degree timers for one turkey cooking. That means, insert two timers at two different thickest part of turkey to ensure not to overcook. If only one pop up timer and it did not pop up, then you'd better to use a normal meat thermometer to check it again.
