I am trying slow cooked turkey for the first time but supposedly this was the way our grandma's did it.
275 for one hour and then 200 for 8-9 hours. You can overcook it up to 180 degrees and then let it rest at least an hour before carving but you are safe to take it out at 160 in the thickest part of the thigh. I plan to go 180 and let it rest. Supposedly the meat will seize and relax creating an even more tender meat that way.
I did not stuff it though some say you can. I am doing it breast side down with flavored butter inside and out and will flip it at the end and crank it back to 300 for the last hour uncovered cuz I love crispy skin. Geez I hope I am right... I really want a good turkey!
You still have time to do this is you eat later.
Also a teaspoon of sugar in your mashed potatoes (just barely a smidge) will greatly improve them although I don't think mashed potatoes need much improvement.
Gravy - now I could eat gravy like soup. Don't get me started.
