I would say mine was done in about 3 1/2 hours. I was surprised at how quick this turkey was to cook too. There is a pop up timer with this as well, so that makes it easier to tell when the turkey is finished. That means on Thanksgiving day I can pop it right in the oven from the freezer. I love that Jennie-O has a lot of these oven ready turkeys. You can take them right out of the freezer and put them straight in the oven. What I love about these oven ready turkeys, is that they require no thawing. This turkey is great for my family of four. I love that it’s Cajun style because it’s something different, and I love foods with extra spice to it. Turkey is a huge part of Thanksgiving, so maybe this Cajun style turkey would be different! I certainly thought this was a great turkey for the holidays. Since Thanksgiving is right around the corner, this product would be great for Thanksgiving. This time around I was given one of their newest products, which is the oven ready Cajun style whole turkey. They have such great quality products that taste amazing. It’s great to get these products, because I love Jennie-O. Since I’m part of the Jennie-O Switch Circle Blogger program, I get some great Jennie-O products sent to me a few times a year. All opinions are 100% my own and may differ from yours. I was not compensated for this post but I did receive the turkey for the post. Then let it cool, and the pop-up piece will be back in its original position - ready to use again.Disclosure: I’m part of the Jennie-O Switch Circle Blogger Program. If you dip the tip in hot water it will re-melt the metal and you can push the pop-up piece back into place. One little-known fact is that these timers are reusable. If it registers 165 degrees Fahrenheit, it's done. Simply insert the thermometer into the innermost part of the turkey's thigh and wing, and the thickest part of the breast, being sure not to hit bone. If your turkey didn't include a pop-up timer, you can use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for doneness. Turkey is done when it reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (73 degrees Celsius). When the metal melts, it releases the red stick (A) and the spring (C) pops up the stick so you know the turkey is done. The soft metal (D in the image) is solid at room temperature but turns to a liquid (melts) at about 165 degrees Fahrenheit (73 degrees Celsius). D: Piece of soft metal similar to solder.B: The outer case (typically white or light blue).A: The stick that pops up (typically red).
