EASY TURKEY IN A PAPER BAG



Easy Turkey in a Paper Bag image

This recipe makes the most beautifully browned, juiciest and flavorful turkey. And it's super easy to boot. It's inspired from the California Culinary Academy. Important!! This recipe only works well if you stuff the turkey. I didn't think that it would make a big difference, but when I baked a turkey and didn't stuff it a while back, It was way overcooked....not good. But this is great for a big stuffed bird. If I were serving this for a special occasion though, I would definately use a programmable thermometer... I got mine for around $15 at Meijers and I use it a LOT! So well worth the small investment. Insert the thermometor into the thickest part og the thigh and bring the temp to 165 to 170 degrees.

Time P1DT3h

Yield 1 turkey, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12 -16 lb) whole turkey (any size)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup kosher salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1 tablespoon Montreal chicken seasoning (a mixture of course salt, course ground pepper and garlic granules)
prepared stuffing, your favorite
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • At least one night or up to two nights before cooking, season turkey inside and out with salt, garlic powder and poultry seasoning.
  • Place in a plastic bag and refrigerate until day of cooking. This ensures that the bird is seasoned all the way through, like brining does, only better.
  • On Turkey day, stuff turkey with your favorite stuffing recipe. Tie legs together and fold wings back behind themselves.
  • Pat turkey dry, and rub olive oil all over bird. Sprinkle skin with Montreal Grill seasoning.
  • Open up a large paper bag so the opening is facing you, and rub the inside bottom of the bag with a generous coating of butter.
  • Turn bag over so butter is on top, and place bag in a pan on a rack.
  • Cut a piece of aluminum foil to line the bottom of the bag. Crinkle it ip then spread it flat and spray with cooking spray to keep bird from sticking.
  • Place turkey into the bag, fold opening of bag closed and staple shut.
  • Place turkey into a COLD oven. (DO NOT PREHEAT!).
  • Turn the heat to 500 degrees. and roast for exactly one hour.
  • Tuen heat down to 400 Degrees, toast one hour longer.
  • Turn heat down to 300 degrees and roast one additional hour.
  • Remove turkey from oven. Total cooking time is 3 hours regardless of the size of the turkey.
  • The bag will look and smell charred, but the butter keeps the bag from burning and the bird will be perfect.
  • Tear away paper bag in pieces and let turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. But the longer rest, the better.

KIDD KRADDICK'S FAMOUS BROWN BAG TURKEY



Kidd Kraddick's Famous Brown Bag Turkey image

Categories     Whole Turkey

Time 4h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (18 -20 lb) whole turkey
2 stalks celery (roughly chopped)
1 carrot (roughly chopped)
1 onion (cut into quarters)
3 -4 crushed garlic cloves
olive oil

Steps:

  • Take everything out of the turkey. There will be a giblet bag and some other stuff.
  • Next add vegetables to the inside of the turkey. You dont even have to peel anything. This is easy because the veggies are just for flavor -- you are going to throw them away later.
  • Take the onion and cut it into quarters.
  • Chop a nice long carrot.
  • Do the same with a couple stalks of celery.
  • Add several cloves of garlic that you mash between a broad kitchen knife and the kitchen counter.
  • Throw it all inside the turkey.
  • Then rub the turkey all over with olive oil -- not butter because butter usually has salt in it and salt is the enemy of a moist turkey. Make sure the whole bird is covered in olive oil.
  • Put the turkey in a roasting pan and cover it with a large brown paper bag.
  • Staple shut. If you have a huge turkey use two paper bags at each end. It wont stick to the bird because of the olive oil.
  • Sprinkle the bag all over with water.
  • Place into pre-heated 375 F oven. ON THE MIDDLE RACK.
  • The bag wont burn because paper burns at 451 and we're at 375 degrees.
  • The advantage of the brown paper bag over the reynolds cooking bag is that the paper breathes so the turkey ROASTS. In the reynolds bag the turkey STEAMS, giving it a different taste.
  • Roast for 13-15 minutes per pound.
  • When you think it's ready, shove a meat thermometer through the bag and into the turkey and give it a minute to register. Make sure it doesnt touch the bone.
  • The thermometer should register between 163-170 degrees.
  • Remove from oven, cut away the bag and remove the basting pan.
  • Do not throw out the drippings!
  • To make the gravy, strain the pan juices into a really big pot. Any juices that accumulate on the turkey platter get poured into the pot.
  • Add six oz. of boiling chicken broth and 1/8 cup of corn starch to the gravy to thicken it up. Cook on low heat and stir and cook and stir.
  • If it seems it isnt going to be thick enough, add a little more corn starch.
  • What about the talk that brown paper bags are unsafe for cooking?.
  • If you mean unsafe because of fire, it is important that the bag doesnt make contact with the heating element of the oven. If you mean because of the recycled paper bag releasing toxins into the turkey, all we can say is that this recipe has been around for over 30 years. We,ve been postonmg this recipe for over 10 years and never had a single complaint that anyone got sick. We've had hundreds of emails that this is the best turkey they've ever tasted and the perfect recipe for first time chefs!
