View Full Version : Cooking Thanksgiving JoJoJoJoJoJoJoJoJo 11-11-2002, 06:38 PM Ok guys.. i am making thanksgiving for me and my roomate, cause I wont' be spending it w/ my family... i'm an aweful cook... so here's my question.... How hte hell do you cook a turkey? Kay Scarpetta 11-11-2002, 06:51 PM Lol.... well obviously I don't cook turkeys yet, but my dad always wakes up early to put it on. Usually around 7 a.m. to eat for about 2 p.m..... Why don't you consult a cookbook? :lol: Just don't use Martha Stewart's...I don't think you want a pastel turkey. UpstairsSteak 11-11-2002, 07:41 PM It's one of the easiest things to cook. The directions are on the inside label. If it's frozen, 4-5 lbs. = 1 day in the refridgerator to thaw. Cooking times vary for stuffed vs. not stuffed. www.butterball.com has all of the basics for preparing the turkey, stuffing, gravy, etc... TJL 11-11-2002, 07:53 PM Two words...

Are you an "aweful" cook? or an "awful cook? an aweful cook means you are awe inspiring! I'm guessing you mean "awful" (terrible) :lol: Most turkeys give directions on the packaging. But I recommend using a plastic roasting bag. You can find them in any grocery store (in the plastic bag, aluminum foil section)and they roast the most juicy turkeys! Good luck! Let us know how it turns out!:) :turkey: InspectorExstead 11-15-2002, 10:09 PM noo! amanda! save the turkeys! my mom usally orders it from vons or albertsons or something. she calls them a week before thanksgiving and i think it's 30 bucks for the dead turkey and gravy, mashed potoes, and bread. so if all else fails, you can always try that.
