TURKEY SAFETY
Thanksgiving would not be the same without turkeys, yet very few people take the time
to learn how to handle them properly. Any poultry needs special attention when handling.
Thawing a frozen turkey the proper way is important to the safety of your family.
Never thaw a turkey at room temperature because this promotes the growth of dangerous
bacteria. The safest way to thaw a turkey is to thaw it in the refrigerator. You should do this
with the turkey still in its own unopened wrapper breast facing up and placed on a tray.
The accepted rule of thumb for time is:
1 day refrigerator thawing for every four pounds of turkey.
