<human>:  What is the best way to prepare a turkey for Thanksgiving?
<bot>: The best way to prepare a turkey for Thanksgiving is to season it generously inside and out with your favorite herbs and spices, baste it with olive oil or butter, and then roast it in a preheated oven for about 15 minutes per pound at 350°F until the internal temperature of the bird reaches 165°F. However, always make sure to follow the specific instructions given on the package of the turkey you purchase.
