I meant cooking quickly as opposed to low and slow. My grandmother would put the turkey in the oven at like 275 and cook it for 4 hours or some stupidly long time. My turkey is usually done in about 2 hours at 500/350.

350 isn't that high for roasting. That's a pretty normal range, and still in "low and slow" territory. 275 is very low, though, especially if she didn't cover it (you can get away with a lot more by covering it).

That's not stuffing, that's just aromatics.

Well yes, technically it's not stuffing. You still stuff the turkey with it, though. It doesn't get served as stuffing, for obvious reasons.

Well, you could still eat it. People like to eat apples and oranges... plus, they dont have to be cooked, so theyd be at a safe temperature, anyway.

Anything that has touched raw poultry needs to be cooked in order to be safe to eat. You can eat those aromatics, certainly, but you need to make sure they're hot.
