Blessings to Woody. Hope life gets better for you soon. I decided to roast my turkey today with Thanksgiving being tomorrow. I feel much better with the task being out of the way. Time to carve the turkey and refrigerate! Much less stress for me tomorrow! Some stuff fresh, and some stuff frozen? Woody, hope you eat fresh daily AND have to make it yourself.

This is wonderful. I have been cooking my turkey the day ahead, for the past three 3 years. No slippery greasy piping hot bird, taking up the oven, making my sink dirty, burning my fingers, taking up Space.

I cut the bird into large portions and pour all the broth over it, and into the fridge it goes. The next day I slice and reheat it. Obviously you never had to clean the pans, cook the dinner, serve the guests and entertain your company all at once. This is a game changer!

If you want the roasting turkey smell…it will still be there when you reheat the turkey. There is absolutely nothing wrong with pre-roasting a turkey a day or two before serving.

Catherine — your comments make me feel extremely uncomfortable and unsafe. My family and friends would be happy to eat whatever I served for the chance to spend the day together!
