Are you ready for Thanksgiving? Learn how to pick the perfect Thanksgiving Turkey!

Brittani called the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line to and spoke with Mary Alice about picking out the perfect Turkey for your Thanksgiving meal.

Want to host Thanksgiving like a boss? Here are some things you know about picking out that bird:

• Fresh vs Frozen: Purchase the turkey that makes you the most comfortable
• Frozen Turkeys: You can purchase as soon as you are ready. Keep in your freezer, but thaw it 3-5 days in advance (depending on the size)
• Fresh Turkeys: These don’t require any thawing, but won’t be available in the stores until about a week before Thanksgiving.
• Sizing: Get your RSVP list and plan about 1 1/2lb per person for adults, 1lb per child
• Looking for Easy? Get the Butterball Turkey in a bag! It comes ready to bake in it’s own bag and is perfect for smaller parties.

The Turkey Talk Line is open for your questions – and it’s free!

Call 1-800-BUTTERBALL (1-800-288-8372), text your questions to 844-877-345, or say “Alexa ask Butterball” and ask your question.
