How big of a turkey or chicken can I cook? TIA.
@Trebor Around a 20lb. turkey (Remove bones & clean) in a 5 gallon pot, covered, should work great ! Split all of the meat from the breast and do not sous vide bone, as it could puncture the bag.
Thanks for the advice.
@Trebor I’m going to close this discussion since we have another related conversation which I noticed you’re also on
For others who come across this - we’d love for you to join in on! It can be found here:
I have turkey split breasts and a heavy duty vacuum sealer - is it okay to leave the bone on?
Why not use the bones and trim to make a broth or stock for your gravy?
Large turkeys can have sharp exposed bones from the saw. To be safe either double-bag the meat or pad the bone with a few of layers of good quality plastic wrap before sealing.
