Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C). Remove the package of giblets and neck from the cavity of the
Whole Turkey (12 lb)
. Rinse the turkey with cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Tie the ends of the drumsticks together.
Step 2
Place the turkey, breast-side up, on a rack in a roasting pan. Brush the turkey with
Olive Oil (1 Tbsp)
. Season with
Kosher Salt (1/4 tsp)
and
Freshly Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp)

,
Lemon Juice (3 Tbsp)
,
Dried Thyme (1 tsp)
and 1/8 teaspoon additional black pepper in a large bowl.
Step 4
Reserve 1 3/4 cups stock mixture for the gravy. Pour the remaining stock mixture over the turkey.
Step 5
Roast at 325 degrees F (160 degrees C) for 3 hours or until the thermometer reads 165 degrees F. Baste occasionally with the pan drippings. Begin checking for doneness after 2 1/2 hours of the roasting time.
Step 6
Remove the turkey from the pan, cover and keep warm. Spoon off any fat and pour off all but 1 1/2 cups pan drippings.
