CHICKEN TIPS:
• Adapt any recipe for use with chickens or other poultry (i.e. goose,
pheasants, etc.)
• Check meat temperature after 30 minutes and every 15 minutes
thereafter until chicken is done.

CHECK TEMPERATURE:
The Turkey Cannon’s unique design pushes heat into the center of the
bird drastically speeding up the cooking process. Check the temperature
after 1 hour and every 15 minute thereafter to ensure that the poultry
doesn’t over cook.
• To check the temperature, insert a calibrated meat thermometer
into the thigh. Do not touch bone or fat to ensure an accurate
reading. Temperature should read at least 165°F in thigh and
170°F in the breast.

C O O K I N G T I P S
1. Use a walled baking sheet or formed aluminum foil roasting pan
to prevent flare ups and to catch drippings.
2. For a stronger flavor, inject and rub the bird at least four hours
before use. Place covered in the refrigerator and let stand until use.
This will allow the marinade or seasoning to saturate the meat and
spread the flavor throughout the whole bird. Keep the turkey cool,
40°F or below is recommended.
3. To add additional flavor, add one tablespoon of seasoning and/or
1/4 of a cup of lemon juice to the liquid.
4. Seal in Juices Method - Cook the bird in a conventional oven at
425°F for 30 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F and cook until done.
5. Perfect Skin Method - Roast bird at 350°F. Baste with butter or olive
oil every 15 minutes. Raise the cooking temperature to 400°F in the
last 15 to 20 minutes of cooking. This will give the turkey a crisper,
browner skin.
6. 18 lb or larger turkeys may need to cook with the breasts down.
Place a onion or an apple under the breasts to support it.
SMOKING (OUTDOOR GRILLS ONLY):
1. Soak 1 cup of wood chips in water for 30 minutes. Wrap wood chips
in a single layer of aluminum foil. Cut 10-12 small vent holes in the
top of foil wrapper to allow smoke to escape. Place wrapper near
poultry on grill. Follow cooking instructions for roasting.
