Hey MaryAnn, It doesn't matter what size turkey (or ham) - I've done pretty much the whole range of sizes. I usually put it on 200, but I have an aunt that says to put your oven on the lowest temperature it has. Part of the coolness in cooking your turkey/ham this way is that it frees up your oven first thing in the morning, so you have as much time as you need for sides, etc.
Happy cookin!!

We always cook ours during the day on Thanksgiving, and end up not eating until six o'clock at night.

I always wondered why would you need to turn a turkey?. I cook mine slow, all night usually at 200 degrees, wake up in the morning to a perfectly cooked, melting off the bone, yummy turkey. I surround the turkey with dressing and cover with foil loosely. works every time. No turning necessary. I cook it for 15 minutes at 400 degrees to brown it up pretty, then turn it down to 200 degrees and go to bed. Debi 2009 see my blog www.debsholisticallyhealthy.blogspot.com
