But chances are, itâs not. âA lot of the brain doesn't have nerve endings,â Tietjen says. âSo most headaches are going to be caused by something else.â. Itâs not common, but bad pain in the brain can be a symptom of a stroke or blood clot.
Q: How can I tell when the turkey is done? A: There are several ways to determine if the turkey is cooked through. For safety and doneness the internal temperature, as registered on a meat thermometer, must reach a minimum of 165 degrees, though most cooks will prefer up to 180 degrees F. in the thigh. The center of the stuffing should reach 165 degrees F in the cavity, and the center of the breast is done at 165 to 170 degrees. You can also prick the leg joint with a fork, and if the juices run just slightly pink or clear, the turkey is done.
Place thawed turkey, breast side up, on flat rack in shallow roasting pan 2 to 2 1/2 inches deep. Brush or spray skin lightly with vegetable or cooking oil for best appearance. Insert oven-safe meat thermometer deep into the thigh without touching the bone. Place turkey in pre-heated oven and heat until hot (140Â° F).hen the turkey is about done, loosely cover breast and top of drumsticks with a piece of foil to prevent overcooking. Your turkey is done when temperature is 180Â° F in thigh and 165Â° F in breast or stuffing. Lift turkey onto platter, and let stand for 15 minutes before carving.
