Well, the folks at Butterball have done it. The question is how does this thing taste?
Butterball unveiled a new turkey for Thanksgiving that you don't have to thaw out. You take it straight out of the freezer and just pop it in the oven. It's called "Butterball Cook from Frozen".
It's meant to avoid the common disaster where you realize you forgot to thaw your turkey out. It can take three days or more in the fridge.
They say it's also great for people who don't like touching raw meat. There's no neck or giblets, and it comes pre-brined. So you don't have to do anything except brush some oil on it. The directions literally say "Unwrap and cook Cook."
The average cook time is five hours, so not much longer than a normal turkey.
They say it's possible because of a "specially formulated brine." And they claim it comes out just as "juicy, tender, and flavorful" as a normal turkey does
The downside is it can't be stuffed. You have to make the stuffing separately. But if you're buying this turkey, let's be honest...you're making Stove Top anyway.
