Cooking Time

I have to prepare turkey by my parents home
I have already prepared turkey
But my mom has 2 birds of 7 pounds
instead of 1 - 14 pounds
Now my question is do I have time to count from 1 - 7 pound turkey
Or should I count the time for 14 pounds
Or between

Treegje, I would go for about 30 minutes longer than you would for 1 x 7lb bird, I guess it should take around 5 hours.

I agree with Ian.

Don't forget the thermometer, the true teller of doneness.

thank you guys for the quick response
Is it no for immediately, but I keep you informed
photos follow

here the promised photos

cook time was 5 hours and 1 quarter

internal temperature 80 degrees







once again thanks you guys

Boy those birds look good! What did you rub them with prior to cooking?

that is a mix that I have composed
and looks something like this

4 part paprika powder
2 volume of salt
2 part curry
2 part garlic powder
2 part basil
2 part oregano
1 part ground pepper
1 part cumin powder
1 part thyme
1 part cayenne pepper

happy to share

I bet the Curry really makes it all happen. I've never tried curry in a rub. (new experiment time!)

Thanks for sharing!
