FAQ:
Q: Can I use a smaller or larger turkey?
A: Yes, you can use a turkey smaller or larger than the recommended weight. Just adjust the cooking time based on the size of the bird (13 minutes per pound at 350°F).
Q: Do I need to brown the turkey outside of the bag?
A: The turkey will brown in the bag while cooking, so no need to remove it before or during roasting. The bag helps keep the turkey moist and golden brown.
