How to Buy A Turkey

It sounds like a lot, but plan on 1 pound of turkey per person.

Frozen vs. fresh: Thaw a frozen turkey in your refrigerator 24 hours for every four pounds of meat. (That’s three days in your fridge for a 12-pound bird –- more time than you might guess.) Never thaw a turkey at room temperature.

If you don’t have the refrigerator space to house a thawing turkey, look for or special order a fresh turkey to pick up just before the big day.
