Do you drain turkey juice after cooking?

Let it rest So, don't make the mistake of rushing the resting period. When you take it out of the oven, carefully tilt the turkey to empty the juices from the cavity into the pan (you'll want to save these juices for your gravy).

Can I use vegetable oil to fry a turkey?

Deep-frying makes the turkey crispy on the outside and super juicy on the inside (even the white meat). It also leaves the heat outside! You can deep-fry the turkey in either peanut or vegetable oil, your choice. We use a 26 quart aluminum pot with a drain basket.

Should I coat my turkey with olive oil?

If crispy turkey skin is your goal then use olive oil on turkey instead of butter. Using olive oil on turkey skin will yield a much crispier skin than butter. It's simply the best oil for roasting turkey.

What can I use instead of butter for Turkey?

Rather than rub your turkey with butter, rub it with olive oil beforehand. For added flavor, use an herb-infused olive oil rub.

How do you butter under the skin of a turkey?

Prepare and stuff the turkey. Loosen skin: Working from the neck end, slide fingers under skin until you reach the end of the breast, being careful not to tear the skin; rub herb butter under the skin. Fill neck cavity: Place turkey breast side down. Fill neck cavity with stuffing; avoid packing.
