   To properly cook a turkey, it is recommended that you thaw your turkey 2 full days prior to cooking, allowing for optimal cook time in the oven.
   Verify that the temperature of the turkey is 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the breast.
   Make sure that the turkey has been cleaned and everything remains sanitary.
   Make sure that there is no visible pink meat when cutting into the turkey.
