[@davidrivera9213]

This is amazing. I have cooked many of your recipes and shared it with friends and family but I wondered why you didn't have a turkey recipe. And out of no where I get a notification from KZbin that you added this recipe. Thanks. Oh and by the way, I had the privilege of going to your restaurant while visiting New York a couple of weeks ago. I took my brother, his wife and my mother. We all loved your food. Thanks again for these videos. You've made a person that doesn't like to cook into one that does.

[@rubycrosby16]

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

[@TaraOHorvath]

I just bought a turkey and followed your instructions! I think I over-seasoned mine… lol oops… but it’s been in there for a half an hour and already smells amazing!!!!!! I put my own little twist on it I hope it doesn’t ruin it.. along with the celery, onion, rosemary, lemons etc I also stuffed it with orange and lime slices😅 and injected it with creole butter… I’ll let you know how it turns out 😅🎉 Puerto Rican turkey is my favorite. I’m half Puerto Rican and My aunt Janette always made the best Puerto Rican turkey, I’m not sure what she did so I looked up a Puerto Rican turkey recipe and found yours! I’m sure she would have loved your food and turkey ❤ she passed a few yrs ago from lung cancer…. Thank you for this ❤

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

The suspense is killing me. It sounds delish!!

[@TaraOHorvath]

@@Thefreakinricanrestaurant IT WAS FREAKIN RICAN DELICIOUS!!! damn straight that was the best turkey I ever had!!! Moist- not dry at all! Full of flavor. I’m not sure the orange and lime slices did anything as I didn’t taste much of that but it was sooooo good! No leftovers!

[@preciousshortie]

Looks delicious!! Happy thanksgiving 🦃

[@gilbertochavez8000]

I just want to say that yesterday we, my wife and myself cooked our first Thanksgiving turkey for the first time following my boy’s recipe, I loved the flavor. I didn’t let it marinade overnight because the video didn’t show it and later my wife saw the commentary about letting it marinate overnight lol, it came out delicious nonetheless. We now have our favorite recipe

[@yourmygod1]

[@idavega-landow7821]

You forgot to tell us what temperature to set the oven at! I've been making Thanksgiving turkeys for years using an orange juice and lime marinade, but this looks so good I'm going to try it this Thanksgiving.

[@luzgonzalez1537]

He said 350 for 5-6 hrs

[@mariacaleb8995]

I'm 68 years old and have never heard of adding sofrito to the adobo for meat. The adobo is usually garlic, oregano, salt, black pepper and onions, which is optional. We can add achoite for color. Also, you need an acid which can be lemon, lime, sour orange, or grapefruit. Don't forget to wash the meat with an acid before seasoning.

[@francesita850]

Yes. Sofrito in turkey and pernil. Only way I know how.

[@DeeCM58]

I agree, sofrito in a turkey and all that garlic. Yikes

[@ritanavedo5527]

Omg I want to thank u because of u my cooking skills in one shot became amazing I follow ur recipe to the tea and let me tell u how much people love my cooking thank u

[@ritanavedo5527]

I’ve done it my self and I’m Puerto Rican and I do that and it comes out amazing

[@adelysrentas4035]

I'm 38. And I always put sofrito on my chicken, beef and pork for seasoning even if the meat is being fried. I also make my own sofrito I don't like the store brand..

[@graciehernandez1364]

I love this recipe

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

Thank you!

[@gladysboada7259]

hey there Freakin Rican, I am saying hello to you all the way from Colombia where most kitchens don't have ovens pffft but one day I will return to the good old USA and I WILL visit your restaurant in NY chao pescao

[@vivibottoms3028]

Thanks for the recipe and Congratulations on your Restaurant! What does the vinegar do for the turkey.

[@Ramon-jf7nh]

Like he said he's giving it a bath giving it some love with all the ingredients the vinegar breaks it down for a moist turkey 🤗

[@vivibottoms3028]

@Ramone Ok thank you

[@erica9314]

I’m here from the future lol. I’m going to make it like this in the bag. It’s my first turkey 😬

[@luzcornier2406]

Muy buena receta..👍🏼👍🏼🇵🇷🇵🇷

[@maritzamiranda866]

if you are going to cook turkey you should also show your viewers in how to do gravy. you can do gravy with the juices that came out of the turkey. just add a little flower or corn starch and taste for flavor just in case you need to add a little more salt. ps,,, your turkey looks delicious
