Roasting Turkey: Where Does the Meat Thermometer Go?

When using an oven-safe meat thermometer, insert the thermometer in the thigh prior to placing the turkey in the oven and leave in while the turkey is roasting. Position the thermometer so it can be read while the turkey is in the oven.

When using an instant-read meat thermometer, do not leave the thermometer in the turkey during roasting. Insert in thigh and/or stuffing to take the temperature. The tip of the meat thermometer should be placed in the thigh muscle just above and beyond the lower part of the thighbone, but not touching the bone, and pointing towards the body.

For the stuffing temperature, the tip of the thermometer should be in the center of the body cavity.
