From the United States Department Of Agriculture, here are some very handy tips for cooking both fresh and frozen turkeys to make sure your feast is perfect.
You're the chosen one, Thanksgiving will be at your house and besides cleaning you now have to invite, make a list, grocery shop, make sure you have enough plates, make the table festive and umpteen other things to make the day enjoyable (and one up your sister-in-law from last year)...
Earlier this year, folks in the upper midwest were concerned about the Avian Flu and what that might do to turkey prices at Thanksgiving time. Well, now that the turkey holiday is here it's safe to say that competition has held those prices flat.
How many times have you cut up a turkey at Thanksgiving or Christmas? You are probably doing it wrong and will have better looking meat, and better looking presentation. You will also have more meat to serve, and won't leave behind so much meat. You will also be able to make stock with this way of cutting.
