Thawing a turkey can be a stressful event. There are two safe ways to thaw that turkey. The safest way is to place the turkey in the refrigerator. Allow 1 day per 5 lbs. of turkey to make sure it is thawed completely.

The second way is to submerge the turkey in cold water. Leave the turkey in the wrapper and completely cover the turkey with the cold water. If necessary weight the turkey down to make sure it stays covered. Be sure to change the water every 30 minutes to ensure safety.

The general rule is 30 minutes per pound to completely thaw the bird.
