Turkey Timeline
If you’ve never cooked a big holiday dinner before, the prospect can be a pretty daunting one. Don’t worry! We’ve got you covered. Here, we’ll give you a step-by-step action plan, so you can get that important holiday meal on the table without a hitch. 2 weeks before: - Confirm guest list - Delegate any potluck items you want people to bring - Finalize your menu - Purchase the turkey (if buying frozen) 1 week before: - Make a master grocery list and shop for all items, except perishables 3 – 4 days before: - Begin thawing frozen turkey in refrigerator - Purchase perishable items - Begin chilling white wines or other cold beverages 2 days before: - Pre-chop all vegetables (for veggie trays, stuffing, side dishes, etc.) - Assemble casseroles; cover and refrigerate (do not bake) - Prepare as many desserts as possible (bake pies, for example) 1 day before: - Set table - Prepare any remaining side dishes or desserts Day-of: - Roast the turkey! Use this handy chart below to help determine how long to roast your bird, but remember: this
is just a guideline. Your oven may run hotter or cooler, for example, so always use a meat thermometer to determine whether your bird has reached a safe temperature! While the turkey roasts: - Bake stuffing (if separate from turkey) - Bake casseroles - Make mashed potatoes - Prepare appetizers and veggie trays When turkey is done and resting: - Heat rolls in the oven (don’t forget to set a timer so they don’t get forgotten!) - Prepare gravy - Pour beverages - Finish off vegetable side dishes; make salad Zero hour! - Carve turkey; place on platter and cover to keep warm - Bring food to the table; double-check that nothing has been forgotten (did you remember those rolls in the oven?) - Rally the troops to the table, and enjoy the fruits of your labour! Bon Appétit!
