Turkey Tips - Proper Probe Placement in Your Turkey

When cooking a turkey, you need two thermometers, not just one. An oven-safe leave-in probe thermometer to track the cook and an instant-read thermometer to verify its doneness. And the first thing you need to do to ensure perfect turkey doneness at the end of your cook is to properly place the probe of your leave-in probe thermometer at the beginning. HOW TO PLACE THE PROBE Insert the probe horizontally, from near the neck cavity. The probe’s tip should be about 1/2 to 1 inch (1.3 to 2.5 cm) from the internal cavity of the bird to avoid touching the bone. Check Out Our Blog Post For : https://blog.thermoworks.com/turkey/a...

One thermometer is just not enough for perfectly cooked turkey. You need an oven-safe leave-in probe thermometer to track the temperatures during the cook and an instant read thermometer to verify doneness at the end. And to ensure that your leave-in thermometer is doing its job correctly, you need to make sure that your probe is in the right place.
