Forget about flavor and tenderness and instead think about safety. After 2 days a fresh killed or thawed turkey is considered unsafe. http://dhfs.wisconsin.gov/hometips/dhp/Turkey.htm |

I was just trying to time it so it would be thawed out by Thanksgiving, but if i thawed out earlier would it be safe? My family wants a fresh organic turkey, but i can only find places that has them frozen. |

I didn't find yopur question odd at all... every holiday season people ask all kinds of questions regarding handling turkey... even many who claim to be experienced cooks actually know nothing about safe handling for poultry. Your's is a very legitimate query... time for the real imbecile inquiries is fast approaching, usually the most inane by certain rfc regulars. You can find more detailed information at the various major national brands turkey/poultry web sites; butterball, empire, norbest, etal. Some even have a hotline you can phone to ask for info. I would strongly recommend following the safe food handling directions exactly, do not improvise, otherwise people can become quite ill, some can die (the very young, the elderly, and those with compromised immune systems are most at risk).

Well, i guess i don't have a clue. I can blame that on my wife who's a great cook. But i do do all the home repairs-plumbing, electrical, auto,that makes up for it. Sorry, but offensive remarks won't affect me. You'll have to insult someone else. By the way, have a Happy Thanksgiving. |

Good point. The charts are based on an ambient temperature of 40F. Most people keep their refrigerators in the 34 to 36F range. So, folks should use a calibrated refrigerature thermometer (or a Polder-type probe thermometer) to check the actual temperature. Just be sure to allow at least 30 minutes of closed door time before checking the thermometer, as each time the door is opened the temperature will increase. -- Dave |

Another variable is to what temperature the turkey might be frozen. I'm not sure that's completely standard. Steve |

Believe it or not, there are standard definitions. This from http://www.the-perfect-turkey.com/thawing-a-turkey.html <begin quote> Why is thawing a turkey necessary? A turkey is sold "ready to cook." No butchering and little if any feather removal is necessary. But because the standard is to deliver at least a "chilled," if not a "frozen" product, your bird will require some defrosting. Turkeys may also be sold as "hard chilled", or "refrigerated", which means that these birds are between 0 degrees F and 25 degrees F. Turkeys labeled "fresh" by definition can never have been chilled below 26 degrees F. As you can see, although they don't meet the US government definition of frozen, they still pretty cold birds. When thawing a "fresh" turkey it won't take as long to defrost it as a solidly frozen bird. But it can slow you down, if you are in a hurry. <end quote> -- Dave |
