  • Jan Allen ~ Butterball Turkey Talkline - National Thaw Day
    Nov 21 2024
    November 21, 2024 ~ Lucy Ann Lance is joined by Jan Allen, Butterball Turkey Talk Line Expert who shares tips and tricks as we get ready for Thanksgiving next week. National Thaw Day, celebrated on November 21st, marks the start of preparing turkeys for Thanksgiving. The recommended method for thawing is one day in the refrigerator for every four pounds, so a 20-pound turkey takes five days to thaw. For quicker thawing, submerge it in cold water, changing the water every 30 minutes, which would take about 10 hours. Alternatively, fresh turkeys do not require thawing. The Butterball Turkey Talk Line offers assistance at 1-800-Butterball or via text at 844-877-3456, with resources such as recipes and a turkey calculator available on their website.
