<bot>: The best way to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving is by roasting it in the oven. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and place the turkey on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Rub the turkey with some softened butter, salt and pepper and add additional herbs and spices if desired. Cook for about 15 minutes per pound of turkey. Make sure to check the internal temperature and remove when it reaches 165 degrees. Let the turkey rest for at least 20 minutes before carving and enjoy!
