ROSE’S HIGH-HEAT TURKEY
10- to 20-pound turkey
Salt
Pepper
Pickling spices
Paprika
Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Wash turkey inside and out. Tie up legs. Put in a roasting pan. Salt and pepper inside and out. Rub a handful of pickling spices on the turkey. Sprinkle with paprika to taste. Add an inch of water to the pan. Roast for an hour and then cover the breast lightly with foil if it is getting too browned. Start checking the temperature at that time. Add a little more water if it dries up.
Remove turkey from oven when temperature reaches 180 degrees deep in the thigh (according to Butterball) or when internal thermometer pops up.
This works best with an unstuffed turkey.
