Zubereitung von High Roasted Turkey
- **Brine the Turkey:** In a large stockpot or clean bucket, dissolve 1 cup kosher salt and ½ cup granulated sugar in 2 gallons of cold water.
- Submerge the turkey completely in the brine. Refrigerate or place in a very cool spot for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight.
- **Prepare the Roasting Pan:** Set a slotted broiler pan top on top of a roasting pan. Line the roasting pan with foil and place your prepared dressing inside. Lightly spray the broiler pan top with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place the roasting pan assembly on a baking sheet for support.
- Remove the turkey from the brine and rinse thoroughly under cool running water. Pat the turkey completely dry with paper towels.
- Position the turkey on the broiler pan top.
- Refrigerate the turkey and dressing, uncovered, for 8-24 hours to further dry the skin.
- **Roast the Turkey:** Adjust oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Remove the broiler pan top with the turkey and the foil-covered roasting pan.
- Return the turkey to the broiler pan top.
- Brush the turkey generously with 2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter.
- Place the entire assembly (turkey on broiler pan top, sitting on the roasting pan with dressing) in the preheated oven.
- Roast for 80-100 minutes, rotating the pan from front to back after 40 minutes. The turkey is done when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165°F (74°C) and into the thickest part of the thigh registers 175°F (79°C).
- **Rest the Turkey:** Transfer the broiler pan top with the turkey to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for at least 20 minutes before carving.
- **Bake the Dressing:** While the turkey rests, adjust the oven rack to the upper-middle position. Return the roasting pan with the dressing to the oven and bake until golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
- Let the dressing cool for 5 minutes before spooning it into a bowl or onto the turkey serving platter.
- Carve the turkey and serve.
