Zubereitung von Bacon Wrapped Roasted Turkey
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Pat the turkey completely dry with paper towels.
- Place the turkey breast-side up on a roasting rack set inside a large roasting pan.
- Loosely wrap the turkey breast with bacon slices, ensuring even coverage.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, herbs (sage, thyme, rosemary), salt, and pepper.
- Brush the butter mixture generously over the bacon-wrapped turkey.
- Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven. Roast for approximately 3 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C).
- During the last 30 minutes of cooking, baste the turkey with pan juices every 10 minutes to maintain moisture and enhance flavor.
- Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful turkey.
- Carve and serve. Enjoy!
