Preparation & Cooking Instructions

Butterball recommends thawing individual roasts in their original packaging, in a refrigerated environment, for 48 hours. Remove the breast lobes and separate them into a shallow pan, place the lobes in a convection oven preheated to 325 degrees F. Cook the individual roasts for approximately 2 hours or 15 minutes per pound. For a conventional oven, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F for and cook the roast for approximately 3 hours. Remove the roast from the oven when it reaches 165 degrees F and let it "rest" for 30 minutes before slicing or carving.
