Turkey Meat

Ham has more tryptophan than turkey.

Set oven to 350. Roast breast down for 45 minutes, then turn breast up.

Cook until the temperature in the thickest portion of the breast is 150 degrees F and the thigh is 160. After you remove it, let it rest 30-60 minutes and the temp will rise 10 or so degrees. It will probably take around 20 to 30 minutes per pound but that changes with the temperature it was when you start and whether it's trussed and other factors. Checking temperature is much better. Time and oven temperature is very unreliable. A meat thermometer is $10 and well worth it.

It Tastes good

If you are talking about preserved sandwich meat (e.g. deli, oscar mayer presliced, cold cuts, cured meat), no they are not good for cats as the salt, nitrate, nitrite, etc. levels are too high for the cat's kidneys to process.

A slice of fresh cooked turkey breast should be OK for a cat now and then as a "treat" but not as a major part of the cat's diet. The level of taurine is too low and the cat could develop a taurine deficiency illness. All commercial cat foods are supplemented with taurine to avoid this problem.

It is not the age of a turkey that decides when you will kill it for meat. It is the size, once the turkey is full size, or at the size you want it to be, you can kill it for meat.

yes you can if you wrap them tightlly in saran wrap.

After not eating meat for a while, meat will seem like a shock to the system. It's best to ease back into eating meat, starting with turkey and chicken, and eventually (slowly) eating red meat again. Some side effects are stomach aches, and stinky gas.

You should already know that. It's 2 slices

The North American turkey rejoices in the Latin name "Meleagris gallopavo"

Yes, turkey is ok on phase 2 (500 cal/day) of the HCG diet. While it's not on the original list of approved foods, reputable websites like hcgdietdirect.com and hcgdietfriends.com have added it to their sample diets.

The breast meat on chickens and Turkeys is white because the flying muscle isn't used much.

Any bird that flies regularly will have all dark meat.

no i am sorry you can't

Tryptophan

About 20 minutes a pound, so about 6 and a half hours, for a 20 pounder.

165 degrees

I know that a lot of people do. We had ham. Many people do Prime Rib or Rack of Lamb.

It should be good refrigerated for 3 to 4 days.

cooked

I have so many! I almost always use ground turkey instead of beef in my recipes. Chinese Green Beans with Ground Turkey is my most popular recipe.

Until it is 175 degrees and it will drift the remaining 5 degrees. But for the weight about 3-3 1/2 hrs. Note: I smoke my turkey and it takes about 8-10 hrs. and if you stuff your bird the time will vary.

probably the refrigerator

Only if you rub them on you

turkey is a bird people eat

dressing is to make it not so dry

All foods are somewhat acidic except milk, egg whites and baking soda which are the only alkaline foods

I believe that dark meat would cook faster since it contains more fat and heat is attracted to fat.
