What is the best way to clean large amounts of sterling silverware?

I have a large quantity of sterling silverware, left to me from my motherWhat is the easiest way to clean the tarnish from them?

Wow, yesthat's plenty of Time250 for 5 hrs should be plenty of timeThe best way that i found to prevent drying is roast the turkey with the breast down, then half way through turn the turkey over and brown the topIf you have a oven thermometer that's even betterStick it in the thigh and cook until the temperature hits 160, take it out and let it rest for 15min.

I seem to cook a partially frozen turkey every Thanksgiving !!! Last Thanksgiving I could not even get into the cavity to get out the bag containing the liver, heart, and gizzardsI baked the turkey with the bag in there and removed it when the turkey was doneNo harm doneAnyhow, I always bake the turkey at 325 degrees for about 3-4 hoursPut the turkey in the pan, put some cooking oil on your hands and rub it all over the exposed top of the turkeyThen wash your hands, and then salt and pepper the exposed part of the turkey Place a piece of aluminum foil over the exposed breast part of the turkeyIt is okay if the legs, thighs, etc., are partially coveredBake until done - you can use a meat thermometer but I always worry that I've hit a bone or something and that I am not getting an accurate readingSo, here's what I do - wiggle the turkey leg - it should feel very loose and as though you could pull it right offAlso, stick the thigh meat with a fork - juices should run clearIt they are the least bit pink, the turkey is not doneAlso, after the turkey has cooked for about 2 hours, remove the foil so that the skin can get nice and brown and crispyIf the turkey is not done but the skin is getting too brown, simply cover it with foil againI also live in a high elevation - over 5,000 feet, so this should work for you at your higher elevation.

You will need the following:- a pan or dish large enough to completely immerse the silver in aluminum foil to cover the bottom of the pan enough water to fill the pan a vessel in which to heat the water hot pads or kitchen mitts with which to handle the heated water vessel baking soda, about 1 cup per gallon of water Line the bottom of the pan with aluminum foilSet the silver object on top of the aluminum foilMake sure the silver touches the aluminumHeat the water to boilingRemove it from the heat and place it in a sinkTo the hot water, add about one cup of baking soda for each gallon of water(If you need only half a gallon of water, use half a cup of baking soda.) The mixture will froth a bit and may spill over; this is why you put it in the sinkPour the hot baking soda and water mixture into the pan, and completely cover the silverAlmost immediately, the tarnish will begin to disappearIf the silver is only lightly tarnished, all of the tarnish will disappear within several minutesIf the silver is badly tarnished, you may need to reheat the baking soda and water mixture, and give the silver several treatments to remove all of the tarnish.

I would think it will spoil at 250-300.I live like 12ft.above sea level and cooked my 1st turkey on 250 and it spoiled.Needless to say we had no turkey that day.LOL I hope it turns out awesome!

Be sure to get all the things out of the turkey cavity,neck,liver, gizzard and tailThese will keep it from cooking easilyIt will probably still be frozen ,so, you can run some water into the cavity until it lets goI cook my turkeys in a roasting pan with a lid and keep about 1 inch of water in the pan to keep it moist.
