want to slow cook my turkey

[Connemmara]

Hi I want to slow cook my turkey breast this year but I am a bit nervous as to the times. Any help out there - thanks

Like...in a crockpot?? Will your turkey fit?

[cab]

Cook it 20minutes a pound plus an extra 20 minutes xx

Cab, isn't that timing for oven cooking poultry at normal temperatures not slow cooking it.
I'm sorry Connemara, I dont know timings so I wouldn't risk it.

[cab]

Yes thats in the oven, sorry I misunderstood. xxx

Try the "British Turkey" site !!!

[Connemmara]

yes it is for the crockpot timings thANK YU MUFCH

[pastafreak]

But it won't be roasted!!.....surely that is half the point of turkey????? There certainly won't be any crispy skin!

It could turn out slimy in a croc-pot.

I saw plump stuffed turkey breasts in Lidls at �5.50 - frozen. They looked good on the packing.....anyone tried to cooking them?

[Connemmara]

thanks for your answers but remember it was only turkey breast not a whole turkey anyway I think it will do it in the oven in the end but usually not matter what happens I find it dry. have a nice xmas everyone

Hi Conne,

Sorry, I wasn't being rude, I really had visions of you cramming a turkey in the crockpot LOL.

I've done a chicken in my crockpot and it was the MOST tender chicken I've ever had - very moist.

I just put it in with a knob of butter, salt and pepper sprinkled on top and left it on a medium for 12 hours or so.

I don't imagine it would be any different with your turkey. Can you do a dry run before Christmas day to check it's OK?
