The internal temperature to cook a turkey depends on the part of the turkey being cooked. Here are the recommended internal temperatures for a whole turkey according to the sources:

• 180°F in the thigh

• 170°F in the breast

• 165°F in stuffing

• 165°F in the breast

• 175°F in the thigh

• 165°F in the thigh and breast

It is important to note that the turkey should be cooked at 325°F for most of the cook time, and the oven temperature should be increased to 425°F in the final 45 minutes to achieve crispy, golden skin. To check the internal temperature of the turkey, use an instant-read thermometer and insert it into the meaty part of the thigh, making sure it doesnt touch the bone. Hold the thermometer still until the numbers stop increasing. If the temperature is not ready, return it to the oven. The food-safe temperature for a turkey is 165°F, and its best to temp between the thigh bone and the breast.
