Default How long does it take the fridge to go from room temp to turkeydefrosting temps?

I hope that's a joke. It would be both dangerous since large sections
will be in the bacteria danger zone for quite a long time and also just
about guaranteed to produce terrible results from very uneven cooking.

Shhhh........we're about to see natural selection at work. Either that,
or the outermost layers of meat end up with the texture of a cinder
block.



Wrong, Dogbreath:

I saved a food safety web-page from Utah State University a couple of
years ago that has complete instructions. I can email it to you if you
like.

Yeah. They're suggesting this cooking method because it saves some people
from thawing it in an unsafe fashion. But, it's definitely a compromise.
Think about it for a minute or three.
