Thawing your turkey in the refrigerator is the safest method because the turkey will thaw at a consistent, safe temperature. This method takes some time, so allow one day for each 4 - 5 pounds of weight. Once thawed, the turkey is safe for another two days, so you can start thawing it six days before thanksgiving (the Friday before Thanksgiving).

Cold water and microwave methods must be done immediately before you start cooking the turkey, so you’ll have to wait until Thanksgiving morning.
