How to defrost your turkey

It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is almost here, and it’s getting even closer to the time to start thawing the turkey! Make sure to plan ahead because defrosting a turkey in the refrigerator will take approximately 3-4 days depending on the size of your turkey.

You need to allow one day of thawing in the refrigerator for every 4 lbs. of turkey. This means it takes about 1 1/2 days to defrost a 13 lb. turkey in the refrigerator.

While this may seem like a little extra hassle, it’s worth the savings! For example, it’s $1.10 less per lb to buy frozen turkey at Publix right now, so to me, it’s worth a little extra effort.
