First, I would buy a turkey and a rocket. The turkey doesn't have to be dead. It will die on the cooking prcess. A big rocket.I would go to Florida and launch it toward the sun. The rocket would land on Venus and Mercury and collect rock samples. Next you figure out how to remove radiation from turkey and therefor, making the turkey edible when it gets back from orbit around the sun. After you have solved that, you wait, say 5 years, at least, and get the turkey back. De-radioctive it, and wait for it cool from several thousand degrees. Enjoy the first turkey in space, the first turkey cooked by the sun, the first turkey to collect and bring back rock samples from other planets, namely Venus and Mercury, and enjoy the turkey by eating it. Yummy! Now where's that rocket and turky?

The first thing to make a turkey. yYou need have a turkey. Then you need to bake it. When you bake it you could put something like water in it so it wouldn't taste dry. Turkey is really good food but I really don't know how to make it.

Well before you cook a turkey, you have to buy it first. If you are serving a large crowd you will want a really big turkey. This year we are serving 15 people so we have a 23 pound turkey! Then next you will want to make sure it is defrosted. Next you put it in the oven so it can cook. After the turkey is done cooking you will want to take out any bones. Then you can have the children brake it if you would like. Now comes the best part. Enjoy your turkey!!!

I would cook my turkey like this. I would first take all that gross stuff out of the turkey than I would stuff the turkey, and then I would put the turkey in the oven at 360 degrees - that is very hot I think, but any ways I would let it cook for a hour in a half.

How my family cooks a turkey is by just putting it the roaster for the whole day. We put stuffing in the mix to give it good taste. when we take it out we put the seasonings on it to give it even more flavor.

To cook a turkey all you have to do is through it in the oven, set it for like 400 degrees, and watch it every 20 minutes till it looks like it is ready to eat.

If i had to make a turkey first i would go to a store and buy one. Then i would stuff it and put a whole bunch of seasonings on it. Then i'd start the oven and then i would put the turkey in. After the turkey was in i would probably watch T.V or something then after the turkey was done i would take it out and set it in a bowl or something. Then i would scream to my family and tell them they can come and eat!! 6G RJ

First step I would do is go get a turkey from the freezer tukey. Next I would put it in the stove and cook it for a while. Then I would check and see if it is done if it is I Would put it on a plate ready for everyone to dig in. I would also make gravy for it. This is how I would make my Thanksgiving turkey.

How to cook a turky is simple( I think). Well first you would take it out of the packege. Then get a big pot. The pot has to fit in the stove so watch that. Then ones you know that you put the turkey in the big pot. Put an inch of water in the bottem. salt and pepper it i think. Than put the big pot and the turkey in the stove(make sure your turky is in the pot). trun stove to 400 degres. Cook 1 hour or till golden brown. When you take it out let it cool!! Then have a great tanksgiving.
PS( I hope thate turky taste good)

This is how my family cooks our turkey for Thanksgiving Dinner. The night before Thanksgiving my mom or sister cleans the tukey out. The next morning my mom gets the crockpot out. Then she takes the turkey out of the refrigerator. Then she puts the turkey in before we go to the High Schoolin the moring at 7:00am. It cooks untile my dad gets home at 6:45pm. G6/LA

3. get mashed potatoes while the turkey is cooking
4.after it is done you gather everyone up to eat
P.S.and I dare you to say on thanksgiving "time to eat come and get it while its hot"

First I would buy a turkey from marshal [cheaper there]. Now put it in at 3000 degrees for 5 seconds for very done 3 seconds for not so done. Now if you’re wondering how to get up to get 3000 degrees and, a turkey glaze. I’d just use water. For the heat problem just buy my ion laser cannon now at local convince stores. J.L G6

First you must get a turkey, take the turkey and put in a pan that has at least five in. on the side. than pre heat the oven to 375 degrees,F. than you prepare the greenbeans, because you can't have Thanksgiving diner without greenbeans, by takeing fresh greenbeans, that you canned earlyer in the year, from the garden and have them cook on the stove for at least ten mn., but don't put them on right away. next stuffing. since you can't grow stuffing you have to get it from a bag. Cook that. Now that the turkey is done ues the leftover jusies to make gravy. carve the turkey and eat it, all of it. finaly after everything is eaten set the pumpkin pie out for everybody to fight over. Thats how you cook a Thanksgiving Diner.
