You want it in the turkey breast, but not so far in that it touches the bone.

---

Do Not touch the Bone it will give you a false reading You want the temperature of the meat the furthest away from the heat. Since the dark meat takes longer to cook that is where you want your thermometer, deep in the center of a thigh. [not touching a bone of course]

White Meat 161 Degrees

Dark Meat 180 Degrees
