S. Ambassador and three others. How the cia with an eye on libya missed the threat is still under investigation. But petraeus testimony helped.

Liz crenshaw joins us now with the gobble gobble edition of ask liz today. You do not want to ask these questions on thanksgiving more. Just ask them now and get them over with. Getting a head start here. The first one comes in from patty in vienna. Whats the difference between buying your turkey fresh and frozen . And how far in advance can you buy the fresh turkey . My sister asked me that question today actually. The department of agriculture helped us with this answer. It says if you buy a frozen turkey, you want to get it well in advance of your meal. But if you have an old bird thats been in the freezer for years, it may simply not taste gas as fresh. Use the frozen turkey within a year for the best taste. The usda said frozen turkeys are safe to eat years later. Just make sure to start thawing the turkey in time for the thanksgiving dinner. If you prefer a fresh bird, wait until tuesday before thanks giving to buy it. By the way, some Grocery Stores do let you reserve that fresh turkey ahead of time. Their refrigerators are colder and more consistent than yours at home. Leaving it at the grocery is good to know. On to the stuffing. The question is, do you stuff the bird or do you cook the stuffing or dressing as some call in a separate casserole dish . Usda helped us answer this as well. It does recommend that you cook your stuffing outside the bird in a separate dish in the oven. The problemis, sometimes the turkey is done before the stuffing reaches a safe temperature, if its inside. Whether you cook that stuffing in a dish or in the turkey, youve got to use a Meat Thermometer to check the temperature. Safely cooked stuffing must reach 165 degrees. By the way, for safetys sake, the turkey itself must reach 165 degrees. Place the thermometer in the innermost part of the turkey thigh. Dont use the popups, just use a thermometer. 165, the magic number. Consumers want to know if pink turkey meat is safe. When we see it pink, and we often do usda again helped us with this answer. It says that the color of cooked poultry, like turkey, is not always a sure sign that its safe. The only way to know your turkey is safe, again, is to use a food thermometer. Make sure its reached the safe 165degree fahrenheit. The meat of smoked turkey is always pink. So you should never be alarmed in this case. We put lots more thanksgiving turkey tips online.

Com, and connect with me on twitter, and on facebook by searching the consumer watch. At 5 00 tonight, how long does it take to defrost that frozen turkey . Once defrosted, how long do you cook it .
