This episode of the Life Kit podcast is your go-to guide for roasting a turkey this Thanksgiving. It breaks down the process into three easy steps: first, selecting and preparing your turkey, which includes figuring out the right size and brining or salting it; next, roasting it until it reaches the perfect internal temperature with the help of a meat thermometer; and finally, letting it rest before carving. The episode highlights the importance of planning ahead—suggesting you buy your turkey 7 to 10 days in advance—and shares tips for different turkey sizes and cooking methods. Most importantly, it encourages you to focus on enjoying the holiday rather than striving for perfection, even offering alternatives to the traditional turkey if you prefer.
