If a turkey weighs 7kg or 14lbs, it must have a roasting time of 2 3/4 to 3 hours and a resting time of up to 60 minutes. This weight is good for 8 to 10 servings.
Roasting time is the time it is cooked inside the oven. Resting time is the time the turkey is taken out of the oven but left alone so that the heat inside the turkey will still continue to cook the meat within.
Roasting time varies on the weight of the turkey but the resting time has a maximum of 60 minutes.
3kg - 1 3/4 - 2 hrs.
4kg - 2 - 2 1/4 hrs
5kg - 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 hrs
6kg - 2 1/2 - 2 3/4 hrs
