Tips for stuffing poultry
Stuff turkey just before cooking.
Use no more than ¾ cup stuffing for each pound of poultry. Lightly spoon stuffing mixture into cavity of bird to allow room for the stuffing to expand.
Turkey is done when meat thermometer inserted in thigh reaches 180°F and center of stuffing reaches 165°F. Allow bird to stand 20 minutes before removing stuffing and carving.
