Preparation

Step 1

Add flour to the inside, bottom of the Reynold's Turkey Size Oven Bag. Place the turkey inside the bag and on top of the flour. *Leave enough room for the bag to close and NOT have the turkey touch/push against the back of the bag.* Season the top of the turkey with tarragon, basil, and paprika. Place 1 Tbsp size pats of butter around the turkey (so that they do not fall into the bottom of the bag and stay on the turkey), close the bag, and attach the twisty-tie to the opening of the bag. Cut four 2" - 3" slits in the top of the bag. Place the turkey in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven, UNcovered, for 2 1/2 - 3 hours (12 lb turkey), for 6 hours (18 lb turkey), or until the internal temperature reaches 165 - 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
