For best results, allow 3 1/2 hours total time to reheat Luella's Whole Smoked Turkey. Reheating these items in a hurry may dry the meat or render undesirable results. 

Follow just 3 simple steps to bring back the love on your Thanksgiving table: 

1. Remove the turkey from the fridge and let stand for at least one hour at room temperature before placing in the oven.
2. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325° F.
3. With the turkey still in the roasting bag, place it in the oven and set a timer for 2 hours. When the timer expires, remove the turkey from the oven and insert a meat thermometer into the drumstick and thigh to check the temperature. Continue reheating until the turkey reaches a recommended temperature of 165° F.

Luella's turkeys are brined with McConnell Farms apple cider, molasses, garlic, and proprietary herbs and spices for added flavor and to help retain moisture during smoking and reheating. Your turkey was smoked with hickory and apple wood for five hours and fully cooked to an internal temperature of 165° F. The smoking process helps dark poultry meat (thighs and legs) retain its natural red pigment, which is often associated with undercooked poultry. Don't be alarmed by this color; it's natural and safe to eat.
