Since this site suggests you book your Walt Disney World trip at least 180 days in advance of your arrival date, and the Disney website likely wonât allow that for 2016 dates until summer 2015 the earliest, knowing that there are ways to book out to 500 days ahead is really helpful !
Roast the turkey: The rule of thumb for cooking a turkey is 13 minutes per pound. So our 16-pound turkey was estimated to cook in about 3 1/2 hours. However, some factors like brining the bird, cooking with an empty (un-stuffed) cavity, and leaving the legs un-trussed will contribute to much faster cooking.
If you just need to know how long to cook a turkey, here are some turkey cooking times: Roast the bird at 325Â°F for 10-12 minutes a pound if itâs not stuffed, 12-15 minutes a pound if it is. If it browns too quickly, cover it loosely with foil. If it has been brined, it will be done about 20-30 minutes earlier than if it hasnât, since the extra moisture helps conduct heat throughout the meat.
