Hi Chef Jean Pierre! I had to tell you that for the first time ever I tried your recipe for the BEST turkey and it certainbly was. My wife, who had to give me some adult supervision :) said it was the best turkey she has ever tasted and she's been doing the turkey dinner for over 45 years! It was an absolute HIT, everyone loved it. You always say it's so easy "a child couyld do it", well this was essy enough for a truck driver to do it so, kinda the same thing!
We also added your cranberrie reccipe, fantastic!!
Love your passion for cooking and teaching. Thank you

Can you use ghee instead of butter
@@u-tube9299Yeah but he's funny. He makes it an adventure. Bona petite.
I like his commentary
👏👏👏
Don't worry Chef, sometimes talking to oneself is the only way to have an intelligent conversation.
That is by far the truest comment ever made
Ha!
Amen to that!!
🤣
Ahhh… good one sir ✌️🔥❤️
OMG...I can't stop laughing... when Careless Whispers came on with the hearts...I totally lost it. I cannot remember when I've had so much fun looking at a video and learning amazing stuff. Thank you chef. This year, we're having a Chef Jean Pierre Thanksgiving... from turkey, to stuffing, to gravy (2 kinds). Have a Happy Thanksgiving. I love your channel and you're my favorite food channel.
Me too! The careless whispers was so appropriate but very funny
Me too 🥰
Me too ❤️❤️💯
The only food channel. This guy, Ya cant help but love him
Me too! I was laughing like crazy. Chef Jean Pierre is the best and funniest! 😂🤣😂
THE BEST TURKEY EVER
I have been cooking turkey for holidays for 40 years and this recipe (and a turkey from a local farmer) made the best tasting meal. A huge help was also the tutorial on carving the turkey. No more dried white meat. Thank you Chef Jean-Pierrre, you are truly a professional.
🙏😊
Omg Chef. It's been a whole year since I watched your video from last year. Last year I was told I had terminal liver cancer and given 6-12 months but it's been over 16 months. Thanks to the glory of God.
Thank you Chef for an amazing year watching your videos... blessings to you my friend. It's been an amazing year and a bit.🙏🏽🙏🏽🤗🤗
I hope you continue to be blessed and will join us to watch another new menu from Chef Jean-Pierre next Thanksgiving.
Stay close to God and keep that positive attitude...doing these two things will help and keep you healed!
Wonderful 4 you and your family
Wow, may God grant you more years.
Eat soursop/tea leaves
When Chef says, "Hello friends, another fantastic video today," I smile because there is happiness for the next several minutes. Daily doses of Chef is the bonus for the holiday season.
One Jean-Pierre a day, keeps the doctor away!
Lol this bad boy is 42 minutes long.

I was a person you had never either cooked or eaten turkey before. But this last thankging was my first Thanksgiving and I had to cook the turkey! I decided to follow this vid and my turkey turned amazing. People loved it and they said it was their best turkey!!! Thank you chef. This is the best cooking channel!!!!
That is awesome to hear! Thank you! 😀
I am gonna follow the great footsteps. I will be cooking Turkey exactly like that next year!! 😍
A chef, a teacher, an artist and a comedian all wrapped up in one! You're my absolute favorite chef to watch! I get so much information from your videos and I'm laughing through most of it! Keep them coming Chef! The world needs more of you!
Thank you 🙏 🙏🙏
Thank u it was great.at to watch u cut
Up the turkey
Is this not the best chef on tv right now???? He’s such a funny person but still I learn so much. Thanks chef! Happy thanksgiving to you
Awesome!!!!
Can you put too many vegetables on the pot roast that's what I like thank you
Exactly!
Chef Jean-Pierre, your cheerfulness and optimistic demeanor are contagious.
This guy is good.
We need a pandemic of ChefJP-21 to make the world a much happier place. Really, if you woke up, had a dose of chef, and cooked his recipes, wouldn't that make at least 50pct of the people much happier and healthier?
Love Chef's humour! Oh, my word, when the romantic music and hearts popped up, it made my day. This is literally the only cooking show that I subscribe to. Not just because Chef is so enthusiastic but also because he teaches so many small tips and tricks, like how to use the grater correctly. I'm learning a lot!
I actually busted laughing at that...so unexpected.
Chef your videos are fantastic,
Yup, that was a laugh out loud moment. Hilarious!
Chef Jean-Pierre is great. I do have 2 other recommendations for you though. Food Wishes (Chef John) is a GREAT channel that is just like this one and chock full of good advice/great recipes. Adam Ragusea also has a lot of useful recipes, but the main draw of his channel are the in depth food science videos (he gets real scientists to interview and everything).
Classic!
Followed your instructions to the letter.....results were exact! Everyone loved the turkey, thought I went to cooking school to learn such perfection. Will never reveal my secret, because I just love the praise.😍 Thanks chef Jean-Pierre, truly was something anyone can do, even a pot-burner like me.😒
👏👍❤️
I followed your turkey recipe from last year, and it came out delicious. It was worth waking up at 3am to start cooking. The recipe was so fantastic that it upset my mother. She couldn't understand how I made a better turkey than her on my first try. Thanks for the laughs, and I'll be trying this recipe this year!
The reason Devin, is you when to Chef school by being a student of Chef Jean Pierre! Each video is a PhD level in cooking!
Devin did you try the brown gravy too? oh my. we did. I only had some merlot to use, no port or cognac, but it still is the most amazing gravy I ever smelled or tasted, no lie.
@@theoldbigmoose you are absolutely correct, we really are being taught by a master Chef, and he's not even a nasty s.o.b. like Gordon Ramsey lol. and Chef's food is much better than Gordon's fish sauced everything!
im gonna try that and his method. i was a bit surprised about the 325 f cooking temp. but this guy seems to be the best chef i probably spent 4 hours watching his videos in amazement.
@@Sean-pc8zs Not yet! We had to move our Thanksgiving to Sunday to accommodate a surgery plan, but I'll be making my beef and chicken stock from scratch on Saturday and giving it a shot. I'm excited!
Just in time for my morning cup of coffee what a great way to start the day.
I was just about to say the same. Beat me to It!
Me too !😊☕️
Yes same here! Haha
Same here! ☕️👊🏼🤙🏼
I watched this video several times and followed Chef Jean-Pierre's instructions to the letter. I only added fresh crushed cranberries and rosemary to the stuffing. I even purchased the rack, utensils, and thermometer Chef Jean-Pierre uses beforehand. This was the first time I ever prepared and baked a turkey, a 13 lb bird. The turkey turned out excellent. The white meat was just as soft, moist, and tender as the dark meat. The best turkey I have ever eaten! Superb. Bravo, Chef Jean-Pierre!
What brand of thermometer does he use?
I just made this turkey today! IT WAS "AMAZING MY FRIENDS!"😂😂 I kept repeating "look a this!"
Thank you chef!
Poor turkey got arrested...another classic from out favorite chef and teacher 💥💥💯💣
Chef no compliment I can think of will do you justice. I've cooking 60 years and I learn something from each of your inspiring and very entertaining videos. Thanks!
Yes we all do.....he is wonderful.....
I watched all the videos in prep of Thanksgiving-- so many useful tips I hadn’t used before -- I’m telling you,, I’ve been making Thanksgiving dinner for a lot of years but this year was the first year where people couldn’t stop raving about how good everything was-- even comments like “this is the best I’ve ever tasted”. For the next two days, my family wouldn’t stop eating the leftovers--and I didn’t even have to force them!😊 It’s amazing how some pretty simple ingredients and techniques make a world of difference-- I love how you really teach us, not just demonstrate--thanks for all you do, Chef JP!
🙏🙏🙏😀
3 years in a row now making Chef’s Turkey and everyone is always very excited to eat it. This is hands down the best Turkey ever! Thanks Chef!❤
🙏🙏🙏❤️
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 Chef!
I wish I could send you pictures! It came out “amazing” again this year.
Sitting at your table for any meal would be a treat and a blessing. What an amazing chef and teacher you are. I’ve never seen anyone prepare a Thanksgiving turkey with as much knowledge and artistry.
You hope we invite you to our house? Mama mia, we wouldn’t ever let you leave. God bless you, Chef😍
Absolutely 199% agree✌️
OMG I LOLed. I have to say, I found this channel last thanksgiving (2020) when I was cooking my first turkey ever, and I loved it so much I now watch every video. I hate seafood and I even watch all the seafood videos. I'll never cook them but I watch them anyway because Chef JP is so entertaining. But I have cooked several of his recipes. Most recently was beef Stroganoff and my son said it was the best beef stew he ever ate! The videos are great, the chef is great, the editing is great. Yesterday's video with the Bermuda Triangle/Rectangle cracked me up. I had to pause this turkey video because I was laughing too hard. I would love to see a Q&A with chef JP. Why did he hate the induction cooktop so much?
I made this turkey tonight (11/24/22) and it was the best turkey we have ever tasted. It was tender and full of flavor and everyone around the table loved it. Thank You Chef for this great recipe, I will use this method going forward, it was amazing!!!!
Chef Jean Pierre. I love you. You are my escape from all the worries I have about "healthy eating." I read today about the value of mindlessness over mindfulness, and to me, YOU are my "mindlessness." Your videos are fantasies. This sounds like an insult, but food is my LOVE--how can anyone not live for best-ever food-- and having you bring this truth alive without regard for anything but its JOY is PRICELESS. Don't ever stop. When I need you, you are there.
Chef J P is not only a great teacher but also so entertaining. I’ve been so happy since I found you. I just came back from spending three weeks in Europe and got my family and friends hooked on Chef Jean Pierre. Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes with us 😘
Chef, I have been making turkey for Thanksgiving for years, trying a number of different methods, and I have tasted turkey made by many others. Yesterday, I prepared and cooked your turkey recipe for Thanksgiving and I can say without hesitation that yours is the best turkey I have ever tasted in my entire life! Thank you.
Thank you Chef. My husband told me that this was the best Thanksgiving dinner I have ever made, and he was right. His favorites were the turkey, dressing, gravy and sweet potatoes. I owe it all to you and thank you from the bottom of my heart. He also followed your video to carve the turkey!
I’ve used your turkey recipes for 2 years now, and I’m pretty sure I will for the rest of my life!
Each year was such a success, and last year my 16-20 pound Turkey was DEMOLISHED between 8 people.
It was so juicy, flavorful and easy to follow!
I have small kitchen space and I really appreciate that I didn’t have to take additional steps like brining, to achieve that flavorful juiciness.
Thank you so much & happy holidays 🥰
I have never seen a turkey that looked that perfect coming out of the oven, it's beautiful!! Got to love butter.
Hi Chef! We tried to do what you showed on this turkey and wasn't able to do it exactly, but it was the best turkey we have ever had!!! It was a 15 lb turkey and we ate the entire turkey (8 people) in two days! We have never ate a turkey to the bones before. The grandchildren loved it and my son (who has never liked turkey) loved it. Thank you so much! We will never ever fix another turkey that isn't done like this!!!
Excellent video. I love how he constantly wash his hands and doesn't wipe his nose or put his hands in his hair like some chiefs and people do when cooking. Thank you chief for such an excellent video on cooking with humor.
I'm subscribing. I came across this video and thought, I don't really want to watch yet another turkey video, let alone one 42 minutes long. But something compelled me to click on it anyway, and I have literally enjoyed every second. This guy is wonderfully humorous and entertaining. Wish I had watched this one first.
Thank you 🙏
My wife walked in at around 6:20, said 'holy macaroni' and had a couple questions 😳 Another great video Chef. I love the format of this channel - personal, informative, original. Happy Holidays!
We love your videos better than anything on Food Network. Don’t change anything…. I did your whole turkey and gravy (2021 recipe) it was Amazing my friend! Thank you
This is the only person I can sit and watch all the video without skipping around. Just amazing to watch.
I made this turkey and Chef Jean Pierre’s traditional gravy and they both turned out amazingly! My best turkey dinner yet! Thank you Chef for breaking down these recipes so that us aspiring home chefs can follow along! Love the channel….keep the videos coming! Happy holidays!
🙏🙏🙏❤️
Milestone!!!!
Wish I could have Thanksgiving dinner with Jean Pierre!
I made this for Thanksgiving, and it was so juicy and amazing friends. We also brined it over night. People said it was the best turkey they've ever had. Fantastic chef! Absolutely awesome.
Chef Jean-Pierre, you truly are an artist. I love what you do and thank you for showing us how to look like we know what we are doing. I'd like to shake your hand.
I watched this video about 17 times…….fantastic
You are so great at what you do, but also so humble about it.... I think that catches our attention, but what keeps our attention, and I really mean this, is your passion for cooking. You couldn't hide it if you tried! In this order, I love your recipes, I love your instruction, and mostly, I love your passion! My only regret was that I was never able to attend your cooking school! OMG, what a blast that would have been! ... Don't change and keep on cooking!
A 42 minutes vídeos this is just what i need for a smooth friday thank you Chef!!!
Every time I think I know all there is to know about something, Chef Jean Pierre teaches me something new and inspires new ideas for me. Thanks so much for sharing your amazing talents with us and teaching us your wisdom!
This man makes me happy, wish he was my grandfather 😁
Over the years, I've learned a great deal about how to roast a turkey. I've also learned that it's usually better to make dressing instead of stuffing the bird - that is, put it in a pan. I've never seen a turkey stuffed this way, and I definitely want to try it on my next one.
Every year, I'm thankful for Chef Jean Pierre's positive energy and videos.
You have a great crew with you too.
Love the editing text.
Many cheers all!
I could watch Jean-Pierre all day and never get tired of hearing him explain everything he is doing and why, love your vids and hope that you never change. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and team.
As always Chef, Amazing. I can cook thanks to you. Love your presentation and keep them coming.
👍👍👍🙏😊
Thank you for doing these videos. Whenever I get notifications for them, they are instantly watched However, my family will protest if I stop brining and smoking my turkeys. Mmm, almost time for bourbon maple turkey.
@@johncspine2787 having two large pellet smokers/grills and multiple Wi-Fi thermometers makes cooking for Thanksgiving so easy.
I will end up having extra half turkey to prepare, so I may do J-P's method.
Chef Jean Pierre is truly the best, I discovered this channel last year when trying to find a gravy recipe and haven’t stopped watching it since. I’ve learned so much and continue to be amazed by his passion for cooking and teaching others. Can’t wait to see what comes next! Happy Thanksgiving Chef!
It’s August and I am drooling over Turkey Day Turkey. Stunning Chef.
Love watching you Jean-Pierre. You make cooking fun while at the same time, I'm learning so much. Thank You
I have learned so very very much from you. So indebted to you, thank you maestro.
Chef…you are hands down my favorite chef on RUclips. I will be making this turkey for my family this Thanksgiving. Thank you for sharing your cooking knowledge with everyone willing to learn. You are turning average cooks into superb cooks. Happy Thanksgiving!
My favorite French chef , I love how you teach,guide ,educate us in the good cooking way ❤
I prepped and made this just the way you instructed for Christmas and it was a hit having the left overs today in a sandwich/ baguette that will consist of Brie, cranberry, warm stuffing, gravy and off course turkey with plenty of Irish ☘️ butter only the best. Thanks for sharing chef God bless Happy 2022 .
As a financial advisor, I always recommend clients buy stock in paper towels *before* Chef JP starts preparing for thanksgiving…
Laughed my head off with the turkey massage❣️🤣
I was so not expecting the romantic music interlude when you were massaging the sage butter on the turkey....I actually laughed so loud.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate a guy who puts a few sticks of butter up in that turkey skin. See people putting it all over the outside, does nothing. See some people putting half a stick in there lol... does nothing unless you use A LOT. Lather that sucker up with some seasoned butter, right under the skin. You have to have enough butter in there because it's all gonna melt off. You need enough to really season the whole breast. And if you have stuffing... GOOD LORD, it's amazing. And the drippings? YES. Glad to see he even added more butter to the top. It's gonna melt off but it will season the top of the breast and the skin. SEASONED BUTTER IS KEY! God bless this amazing man.
🙏😊
Perfect timing! Thanks chef! Hoping there are more holiday recipes to come!
I have watched this whole video and this is just fantastic what chef Jean does with this recipe. DELICIOUS and gorgeous. Thanks chef
too much butter I do stuffing in the turkey and my family will never let Me change my receipe
Now I know how we are definitely doing our turkey this Thanksgiving 2022!
I tried Jean Pierre’s recipe/technique and the turkey came out amazing ! We bought the same thermometer he used and stopped it at 160 degrees and usually the dry white meat was wonderfully juicy ! He makes cooking fun and explains it well ! 😀
Wow, this recipe is amazing. Never thought to use apples. That rack is super helpful. The sage and orange butter is perfect with turkey. We appreciate the cooking time/thermometer tips, these things make a huge difference. Sending this to Mom, hope she uses it. Another gem Chef.
Well meaning stranger: "I'm going to tell my Mom how she SHOULD cook the turkey."
Me: (In slow motion) "NOOOOO!!!"
We had our dinner early, I followed this recipe and it was very easy and delicious! The juiciest and most flavorful bird ever! Thanks
I love the amount of content you have been putting up! And all of the recipes look amazing!
That was the most glorious looking turkey I have ever seen ! Chef Jean Pierre, you deserve a medal for that masterpiece !
I'm so glad I found this channel. Reminds me of the old school food network chefs like Wolfgang and Emeril. Knowledgable and entertaining. This is so much better than the current clowns with RUclips cooking shows who basically scream half the time.
🙏🙏🙏😀
Chef Jean-Pierre is the master at making a gourmet Thanksgiving dinner. Thank you Chef and enjoy your Thanksgiving!
FANTASTIC Video!!! I can’t wait to try your turkey method!! It seems that I learn more about cooking every time I watch you!! And I’m an old lady now! I love your sense of humor and I laugh along as I learn!! Now I need to watch your dressing / stuffing video and the gravy video!! That turkey looked completely amazing!!
What a fantastic Turkey and presentation, thank you Chef for making it look so easy ! I love all your videos !
I just spent 10 hours on my feet in a kitchen, then I came home and watched Chef JP cook a turkey ... and I don't have a problem with that at all 😂
Chef, it’s thanksgiving day and I’m cooking up one of your fabulous dinners, got the turkey stuff with fruits and onion, got the delicious giblet gravy cooking on the stove top, sausage dressing going on the oven while the turkey rest. Thanks to your videos, this is going to be an amazing feast.. keep it up , you’re my favorite Chef..Hope you have a joyful Thanksgiving.
Last year, I used the mastery of Chef JP, to help me prepare the best turkey I ever roasted! This year, I’ve rewatched the video, and hope to match his perfected techniques, and results! Turkey ala Jean Pierre’! I can’t wait til this Thursday!
Thank you Chef! And may your Thanksgiving be a joyous & memorable occasion!
I made your turkey today. My family was so impressed with the results. I told them it was all you. Not only did I make your recipe but I carved it like you did. Thank you for all your help! We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Many blessings to you!
Another Masterclass from a wonderful energetic chef. THANK YOU. Happiness on a plate! 😀
Thank you Chef! I made my first turkey using your help. I also carved my first turkey! The turkey was delicious and juicy and beautiful.
👏👏👏👍
You can flat out cook and I come from a family of great cooks!!! Thank you for your sense of humor and your commentary while you are cooking!! ❤❤❤
When I first found your channel over a year ago, your personality drew me to you, the way you touch and speak to food made me really enjoy you, your passion for butter made me love you, and your obsession with onion made me wonder how I’ve lived for so long without you as a presence in my life. I’ve always loved food and cooking but you brought in my life a new sense of adventure and skill in my cooking I didn’t know was possible. You’re great! You’re hands down the best chef anywhere, tv, RUclips, etc for so many reasons. But mostly it’s because of your joy and love for food and how you just glow through the screen.
Thank you Chef, the turkey was awesome! Moist, flavorful, tender, wow! And for those not as adventurous as Chef is when it comes to butter, we used less butter under the skin (but lots of seasoning) and rubbed the leftover all over the outside of the skin, and still got the best turkey ever! The thermometer placement trick also worked, took about 3½-4 hours at 325 for a 20lb bird.
Thank you so much Chef, we LOVE your videos!
Thermometer placement did not work for me, got to 160 after 2 hours in Convection Roast oven. I put it into the breast and it is reading 125 so I must not have put it in the correct place. I felt the joint and backed it off just like he did. Now I'm not sure when to take it out. I guess I'll hop to 155 in the breast and see.
Love watching you Chef! A big G’Day from Australia
Mate it’s 1am go to bed
Thank you--again. And I laughed out loud when the little hearts and music began when you were massaging the turkey. 🤗 I so much enjoy your program! You make my day. God bless! 🙏
I followed your instructions 100% and honestly, this was the best turkey I have ever cooked. It was not only show stopping beautiful, the juices ran out of the breast when squeezed. I also followed your video on how to properly carve Turkey; it was amazing to serve this piece of art. Everyone loved and raved about it (it had never happened before - ever) . No more overcooked, dry meat. Thank you for passing on your knowledge and doing it with fun! You're a great man!
So glad you had such a successful thanksgiving! It is comment like yours that makes it all worthwhile! 👍😊
Have a great Thanksgiving chef JP! Thank you for all your amazing videos.
Hi Chef, we made the turkey exactly as you did and it was fantastic they loved it as did we. Thank you and God bless.
An amazing series of videos this week Chef JP. I learnt a lot again. Thanks
I watch your videos every year. Your sense of humor is why I subscribed and, of course, your delicious recipes. Thanks, 😊 Chef!
Beautiful! Loved it all ! This will be my best Turkey this year !
It's Thanksgiving Eve and once again I'm watching Chef Jean-Pierre's excellent turkey episode. Always, sage advice from the maestro extraordinaire!
Nice pun! I see what you did there!
Me too I’m watching for the first time ,on my last minute
Chef, I followed your turkey recipe this year and wanted to say thank you. I had a 24 1/2 pound bird so timing had to be spot on to ensure it was ready in time for our guests. I did exactly what you did using the sage butter under the skin and lathered all over the top of the bird. I had two Bluetooth probes in the turkey, one in the thigh and one in the breast. Pulled the bird when thigh temp reached 157. Breast temp was well below that but I knew temp would rise while resting. The turkey was absolutely perfect when I carved it like you did. Juiciest turkey I have ever cooked and I have done many over the past five decades. Will never do one any other way. Your method is the best and I received many compliments regarding tenderness and moistness. Made sure to tell them it was your method so suspect you’ll be getting some more subscribers. Thanks again chef.
P.S. breaking those wings was a little tricky but I managed to crack those suckers and get them tied behind the birds back.
Watching you on your channel is a highlight of my day. I have been cooking as a home cook for over 50 years. I learned from my Italian Nonna so many years ago. My mother was a good cook too, but she was too. It gives me satisfaction to know that many of the things I do in the kitchen, are just the same as the way you walk us through the teachings. Like the way you carve and platter your turkey. Even the fruits and spices inside the turkey’s cavity and the seasoned butter under the skin of the breast. Yet, I always learn something new from your videos. I have struggled a bit each year, using my large chef’s knife to carve the breasts and legs off. I never thought of using the boning knife. It makes perfect sense. Thanks. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
That looks sooooo good: another masterpiece of cooking art.
This man… is legendary. Every friggen recipe is a hit. The turkey is amazing and was only rivaled by HIS mashed potatoes. Get a potato ricer, you will never go back. Thank you Chef!
Chef Jean-Pierre!
I made this recipe for our family Thanksgiving dinner the other day and my entire family LOVED it!! I was thanked a million times. I gave you all the credit, though, I’m telling you! Thank you, chef!
Made this for the family yesterday......It was the best we have had in ages. Many compliments from the family. Chef Pierre, Many Thanks for your videos and for sharing your knowledge of having fun while cooking with all of us!!
Recipe is great! Everyone loved it today. So many compliments. Took it out at 155 just like you said and it was perfect. Breast meat was juicy.
Great job and I appreciate the carving lesson!
You are an artist!
Thanks to you, Chef, I made the best turkey I have ever made today. My family was impressed with my juicy turkey and beautiful presentation! They have no idea I just learned these things from you yesterday!
❤ love you Chef Jean-Pierre! My mother is French ….has passed away. Brings back memories of her. Love your step by step instructions! Best cooking show!
