According to Popeyes, the turkeys range between 11 and 13 pounds, giving diners plenty of turkey to eat.
Popeyes Cajun-style turkey recipe
Here are Popeyes' cooking instructions on how to prepare the Cajun-style turkeys:
- Thaw 72 hours in the refrigerator or in cold water (changing water hourly). Popeyes says "DO NOT thaw at room temperature. Always leave in sealed plastic during thawing."
- Preheat conventional oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove all packaging, reserving juices.
- Place turkey on a rack in a large roasting pan and pour juices into the pan.
- Cover with aluminum foil, forming a tight seal around the edges of the pan.
- Heat on the lower rack in the oven for 1.5 hours.
- Remove the foil and heat the uncovered turkey for 30 more minutes and until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees Fahrenheit as measured by meat thermometer inserted into the deepest part of breast meat (not touching the bone).
- Let stand 20 minutes before carving.
- Save pan drippings for gravy if desired.
