I'm a good cook but for some reason, I'm not the best at cooking turkey even though I can cook everything else. If you don't have any cooking experience I'll give you a few basic tips. You must preheat your oven - turn it on and wait for the light to go out. Wash the turkey and remove the inner parts- they 'll be inside the turkey. Tie up the legs so they won't fall off while cooking. Season inside and out with salt and desired spices. Most cooks don't recommend stuffing the inside anymore. Buy yourself a meat thermometer and insert it in the thigh without touching the bone. I also recommend buying one of those basic cookbooks - these will teach you basic cooking skills. If it's a frozen turkey follow very carefully the defrosting method. Good luck.
