TURKEY THAWING METHODS- Experts recommend refrigerator thawing. However, if you are short on time and need a quicker method for thawing, submerge the turkey in cold water. Thawing a turkey at room temperature allows bacterial growth and is not recommended. * REFRIGERATOR THAWING Thaw breast side up in unopened wrapper on a tray in the refrigerator. Allow at least one day of thawing for every four pounds of turkey. *COLD WATER THAWING Thaw breast side down in unopened wrapper submerged in cold water(completely covered). Change the water every 30 min to keep the turkey surface cold. Estimate minimum thawing time to be 30 min per pound for whole turkey.
