Hello, Butterball How long to cook
According to the Guinness Book of Records the greatest dressed weight recorded for a turkey is 39.09 kg (86 lb--about the size of a large dog)for a stag named Tyson reared by Philip Cook of Leacroft Turkeys Ltd, Peterborough, United Kingdom. It won the last annual 'heaviest turkey' competition, held in London on 12 December 1989, and was auctioned for charity for a record £4400 (then $6,692)

Breeding toms regularly exceed 50 lbs nowadays. Too large to procreate naturally , all hens are breed by AI ..Mind you someone one has to " milk" the toms and another fortunate individual has to inseminate the hen . This is done manually by blowing the semen into the hen via a plastic straw .

I would gladly take on 3 or 4 12 pounders over anything that big! Keeping it moist and tender would be difficult.

Warlords, I never raised turkeys but did raise broiler / fryer type chickens for 30 years . Butterball turkeys is located in my county . One of my post retirement jobs has been to install and repair equipment in the turkey house .

Had a secretary at Ft. Benning who was born and raised in Hawai'i. Called her one year, asked if they had a good Thanksgiving? She said "Real good. We put a turkey in the ground."
