Improperly Cooked Thanksgiving Turkey Could Be Hnardoaa V Do you stuff your Thanksgiving turkey the day before it is routed? Or do you cook it in a slow oven for hours and hours, so that you don't have to get up in the middle of the night? If so, you are running the risk of , food poisoning. Any method which allows the turkey and stuffing to set between 40 and 140 degrees F. for more than a couple of hours is risky, says Bob Brackett, extension food specialist at North Carolina State University. Protect your family this holiday season by playing it safe. Never thaw a frozen bird at room temperature. Never stuff the turkey one day and cook it the next. Never roast it partly one day and finish it the next. Never roast the bird at 200 degrees for a long, long time. Never place the bird in an oven preheated to 500 degrees F., turn the heat off and let it sit 10 to 12 hours. The safest way to thaw a turkey is in the refrigerator, allowing one to two days for a four to 12 pound bird; two to three days for a 12 to 20 pound turkey and three to four days if the bird weighs 20 to 24 pounds. The fastest safe method is to wrap the bird in a water-tight wrap and put it in cold water. It will be thawed in four to six hours if it weighs four to 12 pounds; six to eight hours if it is 12 to 20 pounds and eight to 12 hours if it is 20 to 24 pounds. Turkey can also be doubled wrapped in paper bags and placed in a cool room to defrost. Allow 12 to 15 hours for a four to 12 pound bird; 15 to 20 hours if the turkey is 12 to 24 pounds. Stuffing is another potentially hazardous food. It is best to cook it separately from the bird, recom mends the extension specialist. If it is placed inside the turkey, place it loosely and use a meat thermometer inserted into the stuf fing. The temperature should reach 160 degrees F. "If the stuffing is packed too tightly, the turkey will be overdone." Dr. Brackett warns.
