- Warm up the oven to a cozy 350°F.
- In a bowl, whip up your spice blend. Think holiday aromas!
- Get your roasting bag all floured up inside, then nestle it into your roasting pan.
- Create a veggie cushion inside the bag with your onion, garlic, and carrots.
- Give your turkey a lovely butter massage, then get it all dressed up in that spice mix.
- Gently place the turkey in the bag, on top of the veggies. Seal it with some kitchen twine and give the bag a few little slits on top.
- Pop it in the oven and roast away! The time depends on your turkey’s size (check the guide above).
- Once your turkey hits the perfect 180°F internally, let it rest a bit in the bag.
- Carve it up and get ready for applause!
