| Question about freezing/refrigerating a turkey Posted by SW2SCLA I bought an unfrozen 11 pound turkey today that I plan on smoking the 26th or 28th of this month. I know I have to freeze it, but how early do I need to take it and thaw in my fridge before my cook date? I don't have much experience with whole turkeys, but I've learned to use my smoker this past year and want to give it a shot. TIA. on 11/18 at 6:17 pmReply • Back to Top |

| I wouldn't keep it unfrozen for ten days. Freeze it and thaw two days before in fridge. If still frozen the day you want to use it put in a sink with cool water. It will thaw completely in about six hours. Reply • Back to Top |
| Leaving poultry in the fridge for 10 days seems risky to me. I use chicken within 36 hours of thawing it. Reply • Back to Top |
| Why did you buy an unfrozen turkey so you could freeze it? Friday morning you could have bought it way cheap bro. Take it back for a refund ASAP. Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
