What Size Turkey Should you Buy?
The holiday season is upon us, and it’s time to start thinking about how many guests you want to feed. If you’re hosting Thanksgiving dinner, there are some things you should know about buying a turkey.
First off, you don’t necessarily have to buy a whole bird. You can choose from several different sizes, including a 10 pound, 12 pound, 14 pound, 16 pound, 18 pound, 20 pound and 22 pound turkey.
If you’re looking for something smaller, consider a 5 pound bird. This size fits well into most ovens, and it still provides plenty of meat. For those who prefer a larger bird, a 15 pound turkey is perfect for a crowd.
So, now that you know how big your turkey needs to be, let’s talk about what to do once you bring home your turkey. Here are a few tips to help ensure that your turkey stays moist during the holidays:
1. Make sure your turkey is properly thawed. Thawing a frozen turkey takes longer than defrosting one that was stored in the refrigerator. To make sure your turkey is ready to go, check the temperature gauge on the side of the package. Ideally, the internal temperature should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit. If it isn’t, put the turkey back in the freezer for another hour or two.
2. Remove the giblets. Giblets include the liver, heart, kidneys, and neck. They’re located near the cavity where the legs used to be. Simply pull out the innards, rinse them under cold water, and discard.
