14 lb. bird. Dry salt brined in fridge overnight. Pit Barrel Smoked. Cornbread dressing.
Left this frozen critter in fridge three and a half days. Still hard as a rock yesterday. Had to do the cold water soak all day to thaw yesterday.
PIA.

Yeah, those frozen birds take a good 5-6 days to thaw in the fridge. Made that mistake once when I was a kid. Bought a frozen Turkey day before Thanksgiving. Had to cold water and cut up into pieces then cold water again. Still didnt work right.
