Finally did it! Thanksgiving turkey in the crockpot

I got my 12ish pound whole turkey in my ninja foodi possible and slow cooked him. Worked great! Would definitely do again but it was a very tight squeeze, I’d choose a smaller bird next go round.

In the hustle and bustle of getting all the food out I did not get a final picture but you can see him decently in the progress photo.

I cooked him on high initially for several hours, then he seemed like he was cooking too fast so I went to low. But then at the end I used the bake function to get him up to temp as the rest of the food was ready to go and we wanted to expedite. Total cook time was around 5 hours. For the future I would just stick with high for the whole 5 hours and I think that would’ve been perfect.

Skin was not super crispy (as you’d expect) but it was pretty-I did not feel the need to broil.

I used a stick of butter and spices of my choice. That’s all!
