Is it 15 or 20 minutes per pound for Turkey?

It's generally 15 to 20 minutes per pound for an unstuffed turkey at 325°F-350°F, but 15 minutes/lb is a safer average, with 20 minutes/lb for larger birds or if stuffed, always using a meat thermometer for accuracy (165°F) to avoid dry, sawdusty meat. Smaller turkeys might cook faster (closer to 13-15 mins/lb), while larger ones benefit from 20 mins/lb, and stuffing adds about 20 minutes to total time. 

Should I cover my Turkey with foil?

Yes, you should cover your turkey with foil for most of the cooking time to keep it moist, especially the breast, but remove the foil for the last 30-60 minutes to allow the skin to crisp and brown properly, creating juicy meat with crispy skin. Loosely tenting the turkey with foil is key to prevent it from steaming and becoming soggy, trapping moisture without sealing it in completely.
