Any contents in the bird cavity should reach the temperature that is recommended for the bird itself. I.e., if you are cooking a turkey with stuffing, both the turkey AND stuffing should reach 165 deg. F.
"Trussing" in this usage means "tying up". So, with a chicken (or a turkey), when you go to bake it, if you have placed stuffing in the cavity (as you should, so as to conserve energy), you would need to truss the cavity closed and tie the legs at the ankle together so that they don't spread wide during the baking process, which might cause it to dry out unnecessarily.

When cooking a Cornish game hen, the thermometer should be inserted into the thigh. The stuffing inside should read 165F to be considered done.
For pre-cooked ham, you need an internal temperature of 140 degrees F. For a non pre-cooked ham, you should cook it until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
Salmon should be cooked to an internal temperature of 130 to 135 degrees F.
48C
To prevent the stuffing from spilling out of the cavity, the legs of the turkey should be trussed with butcher's twine.
A bird should be stuffed just before cooking to ensure it retains moisture and flavor during the roasting process. Stuffing a bird too early can lead to food safety issues, as the stuffing may not reach a safe temperature in time. It's important to fill the cavity loosely to allow for even cooking. Always check that the internal temperature of both the bird and the stuffing reaches at least 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
Stuffing should be cooked in the oven for approximately 30-45 minutes at 350F until it reaches an internal temperature of 165F.
Stuffing is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) if cooked separately or in the bird. It should be moist but not soggy, and the texture should be fluffy. If the stuffing is browning on top, it’s a good sign that it’s ready. Always check for even cooking by testing the center of the 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.
Vacuum packed fish should not be kept at room temperature for more than 2 hours. It is recommended to refrigerate or freeze vacuum-packed fish to maintain freshness and prevent bacterial growth.
Stuffing should be put in the turkey just before it is ready to be cooked in order to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.
To ensure a turkey with stuffing is cooked thoroughly and safely, it is recommended to cook it until the internal temperature of the stuffing reaches 165F (74C). This typically takes about 3 to 4 hours for a stuffed turkey weighing around 12 to 14 pounds, cooked at 325F (163C).
Yes, if you are using raw stuffing in a turkey, you should cook it longer to ensure both the turkey and the stuffing reach a safe internal temperature. The stuffing needs to reach at least 165°F (74°C) to kill any harmful bacteria. It's recommended to cook the turkey to about 165°F in the breast and 175°F in the thigh, which may take longer than cooking the turkey alone. Always use a meat thermometer to check the temperatures accurately.
About 30 min.
The recommended cooking time for a stuffed turkey is about 20 minutes per pound at a temperature of 325F. The internal temperature of the stuffing should reach 165F to ensure it is safe to eat.
