Step 4Monitor roasting progress
Cook bird at 400F for about 30 minutes, then turn the temperature down to 350F for the rest of the cooking time. No basting required. The miso browns very easily, so it's a good idea to cover the breast with a piece of foil when you turn the temperature down. I didn't do this early enough, so my miso is a bit black on top.
When a meat thermometer inserted into the meaty part of the thigh/body junction reads ~160, it's time to take the bird out. I don't really trust those "popper" thermometers the turkeys come with, especially since they're located in the breast, which often cooks at a different rate from the rest of the bird.
