PS I'm curious how your turkey turned out back in 2012. The Turkey turned out good. I worry about everything. I figure if anything that could go wrong will go wrong. I really have to change my attitude on life. Thank You for asking.

I felt the turkey and it's very cold so I have it in a plastic tub in a garbage bag and I'm going to put some ice in the tub with the lid on so it thaws out evenly. So I think I might have to wait an extra half day which will give me 2 1/2 days to thaw so it should be OK.

No 2 days, and it's still frozen and hopefully it will be thaw in the morning?

What does that mean. Your not going to cook the turkey when it's frozen?

I have a frozen 20 pound turkey and I put it in my garage for 30 hours and the temperature is 40 at night and 60 during the day, so after 30 hours (2 days and 1 night) I bring it into the house which is at 70 degrees and it should be thawed in 18 hours making it 48 hours to thaw a turkey...

To get as much information as I could which I did and then make my decision. It’s called research. My decision is however differnent than when I first came here thanks to this site.

After washing the turkey and taking out the neck and gizzard the turkey no longer felt frozen. Is it true that an oven bag will shorten the time for cooking? Because with the bag my time in 12 minutes per lbs. even if it say in so many words 10 milnutes per lbs. Otherwise I cook at 15 minutes...

I'm like you I don't care what those thermometers say I'm going to cook my turkey until it is done. I would rather have an over cook turkey than a trip to the ER. Stick to 21 minutes/lb.but at what temp.? I might not have cook a turkey in over 5 years but I have cook about a dozen of them in my...

After 25 minutes in the oven at 325 I remember that I forgot to take out the neck and gizzard, so I put the turkey back into the sink and ran warm water over it until I could get them out and since my turkey was only a little frozen when I put it back into the bag it no longer felt frozen. As...

My turkey was in the refreg for 72 hours and this morning it is half frozen. So all the serches tell me to put it in the oven for 5 hours at 325 degress. So I pour some oil over the turkey and took my hands and made sure oil was all over the turkey put it in a oven bad with a tablespoon of flour...

Tomorrow I will find out (That is when it will of been in the refreg for 72 hours) if the butterball turkey comes with a pop up thermometer or not but at 350 for 4 hours. Is there a chance that would undercook it? I have a modern over but I haven't used an oven in over 5 years. Thank god it's...

I went to the store and bought a pan and a turkey bag which I never used before and the bag say 350 degrees. So I'll try it and cook it for 4 hours. I was told that the turkeys come with a thermometer installed? I bought a butterball so I don't know? I'm sure I wouldn't put the thermometer in...

I really need advice because I'm afraid to cook this turkey. My other half is in Japan and I'm here all by myself and would like to have some turkey sandwiches. I'm going to the store and get a pan and I'll see if they have a thermometer but I'm never use one. I really want this turkey cook done...

I don’t get putting a thermometer in the bird?? All the years I have ever cook a turkey I have never put a thermometer in the bird. Is it possible to put a 15 pound turkey in the oven at 325 for 5 hour and your haven’t reach the right heat inside the bird? I even seen one post saying cut the...

I'm an old man and I have cook about a dozen turkey's and I wrap all of them in tin folder and never put a thermometer in them because I cook them about 15 minutes longer and when I tore them apart to eat them there were no pink and I cook them at 350 at one hour per pound and now I'm told when...
