Willie Bird Nitrate-Free Smoked Whole Turkey

FLAVOR PROFILE

• Juicy, all-natural, free-range, sweet brown sugar, smoky

WHY WE LOVE IT

• Nobody smokes a turkey like the experts at the famous Willie Bird Ranch in Northern California, where the free-range birds are raised on the tastiest, healthiest natural grains. Entirely free of preservatives, our whole, bone-in turkey is rubbed with a brown-sugar cure then slow-smoked to succulent perfection. The mild, moist meat has a spectacular smoky flavor and is delicious hot or cold.

Thawing Instructions

If you need to cook your turkey in the next couple of days, we recommend softening the bird in the refrigerator. Below are the USDA's recommended refrigerator thawing times:

• 4 to 12 pounds – 1 to 2 days
• 12 to 16 pounds – 2 to 3 days
• 16 to 20 pounds – 3 to 4 days

If you need to cook your turkey in less than one day, we recommend softening your bird in a cold-water bath. Allow approx. 30 minutes per pound.

Submerge the turkey (in the original bag) in cold tap water. Change the water every 30 minutes until the turkey is thawed. Cook the turkey immediately after it is thawed. Below are the USDA's recommended cold water thawing times:

• 4 to 12 pounds – 2 to 6 hours
• 12 to 16 pounds – 6 to 8 hours
• 16 to 20 pounds – 8 to 10 hours

Preparation Instructions

• If frozen, thaw in refrigerator as noted above.
• Place in sealed roaster pan or wrap in foil and roast at 375°F for 10–15 minutes per pound: Small (9–12 lb.) for approx. 2 hours; Medium (13–16 lb.) for approx. 2 1/2 hours; Large (17–22 lb.) for approx. 3 hours.
• Temperature check can be done in deepest part of breast.
• Remove from oven and place on warm platter, then allow 15 minutes to finish cooking with tin foil cover still on, then serve.
• Please note: Whole smoked turkey cannot be stuffed before reheating. Cook stuffing separately.
