sous vide whole

I rarely sous vide a whole turkey without spatchcocking it due to the safety concerns. So here is my go-to version if I want to keep the whole bird together. It can be used as a simple sous vide whole turkey recipe to pair with all your favorite Thanksgiving or family sides.

Preheating

Preheat the sous vide machine to 145&deg;F (62.8&#186;C) for my ideal texture or up to 150&deg;F (65.6&deg;C) for a more well done version.

Spatchcock The Turkey

Trim off any fat and spatchcock the whole turkey so it can lay flat. Salt the whole turkey and add any seasoning rub or herbs you prefer.

Seal In Sous Vide Bag

Seal the turkey in a sous vide bag, Ziploc-brand freezer bag, silicon bag, or other food- and heat-safe bag or zip top bag.

Cook The Whole Turkey

Place the sous vide bag in the water bath and cook until pasteurized, which is usually 4 to 6 hours depending on the thickness.

Dry The Whole Turkey

Once fully cooked, take the sous vide bag out of the water bath and remove the spatchcocked turkey from the bag. Pat it dry with a paper towel or dish cloth.

To Sear The Food

Sear the whole for 1 to 2 minutes per side over high heat. It should just start to brown but the core temperature shouldn't rise. I often use a broiler or grill on high heat to more evenly brown it Remove it from the heat.

Time To Plate

Place the whole turkey onto a plate with any salads or sides then serve.
