It's done when...
 
A meat thermometer inserted in the inner thigh reads 180¦F (82¦C) for a stuffed turkey or 170¦F (77¦C) for an unstuffed turkey.

The legs move easily when twisted and the juices run clear.

When the turkey is done remove it from the oven or barbecue. Cover with foil and let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before carving.
