momof5plus1hubby Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I almost forgot to get him out oooppps. Everybody else rem to pull him out? Or do you buy a fresh one?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccarson1972 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I got mine out Sunday. It's almost 23 lbs., so I had to take it out by Sunday. If my turkeys are still frozen by Wednesday I usually fill up the kitchen sink with cold water(refilling it every half hour to hour) and defrost it(still wrapped of course) that way to. Works pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laffnatu Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I'll be so glad when I can get that thing out of the fridge and cook him. It's taking up way too much space in the fridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lisamag Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 took our bird out this morning, it's not big so it should be good by thursday. if it's not i'll just stick in some cool salt water and it'll be soft in no time (done it before with other meats).glad to have the space in the freezer again.

Melissa Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 We took ours out of the freezer Sunday afternoon. I meant to do it Saturday night but forgot all about it. It's a 24 pounder and still pretty solid. Hope it thaws by Thursday morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
