defrosting the christmas turkey

it's been a million years since i made a turkey.

i searched online, and found that you can thaw a bird in water. so... i put the tukey (11 pounder) in a plastic storage container and filled it with cold water. i put the whole thing in my "back room". this room has almost no insulation, so it's really cold.

according to what i read, he should be thawed out in a day... is that right?

did i take him out of the freezer too early?

suddenly, i'm worried

Re: defrosting the christmas turkey

dont be.. i usually just take it out and sit in in a container of some sort and let it thaw out.. once it's thawed, then I'll season it and refrigerate it until it's time to go into the oven.
