We cooked a turkey about a month ago just for fun, and put the extra meat into Foodsaver vacuum sealed bags, then the freezer.
Thawed one out last week and it was as fresh and succulent as the minute it came out of the oven. Amazing! From now on, that's what we'll do, because we're a small family and these big birds are going to last us a few meals.
Exactly what we do. I also buy a frozen turkey at Thanksgiving and stash it in the freezer for cooking up later in the year.
These "fresh turkeys" that you buy in the grocery store have been dead, a long time.....you do realize that. Frozen turkey`s are actually fresher. The turkey is frozen right away. The "fresh turkey", has a lot of steps to take, before it gets to the store.
I think it takes time to defrost is also a problem. We bought one solidly frozen today for $7, this is cheap meat for January. We bought another non frozen turkey from a Traders Joe, I was able to get one for 13 lbs, normally I would select around 11-12 lbs, but not this year, no more kosher turkeys either.
