Do you bake a turkey? Yes. For Thanksgiving, for stuffing, for leftovers.
Do you broil one? Only if you’re in a hurry or want to show off. It’s for small cuts, not the centerpiece.
But here’s the secret: neither is wrong. Cooking is about what tastes good to you. If you like crispy skin, broil at the end. If you like moist meat, bake low and slow.
A Final, Silly Challenge
Next time you cook a turkey, try this: Bake it for 3 hours, then broil for 5 minutes. Watch it crisp up like a chicken from heaven.
Your smoke detector will hate you. Your taste buds will thank you.
And remember: No one ever won a cooking fight by being too serious. So laugh, burn a wing, and dip it in gravy. That’s the real win.
Now go preheat your oven—and maybe take the battery out of the alarm first.
