It is a common myth that turkey can not be cooked safely from the frozen state In fact, it is perfectly safe if proper procedure is followed. A HACCP based procedure for cooking turkey from the frozen state is outlined by Dr. Snyder, a food safety expert, at the following address: http://www.hi-tm.com/Documents2005/turkey-cook-frozen.pdf The Mayo Clinic is another source of information which can be found at: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/Thanksgiving-turkey/AN01483 An added bonus is that the risk of microbial cross contamination is lowered as juices are not dripping and contaminating surfaces. Please note however that cooking time increases by 50-60%.
