Discussion:
Freezing and storing cooked turkey?

G'day mates,

I didn't really want or need a turkey for Xmas, but you know how
bloody Murphy works -- I won one at the pub tonight! (I wanted the
ham! :-)

Okay, so let's assume I can work out a way to cook the damn thing
acceptably -- then what do I do with the leftovers?

I presume it *is* possible to freeze and store cooked turkey for a
reasonable length of time, but what would you recommend as the best
way to do it?

I tried a google approach, but was left a little confused: One site
told me that cooked turkey slices would store frozen for a month and
the gravy or broth for 2 to 3 months. But it also said the cooked
slices stored in gravy or broth would store frozen for 6 months!

Clearly not a simple linear relationship!

So, waddaya reckon mates? How do you do it for best results?
TIA.

Cheers, Phred.

Store the boneless breasts whole, tightly wrapped and then mix
any dark meat with gravy and freeze that separately.

Eat turkey sandwiches for a few days, then wrap what's left tightly in
freezer paper or heavy duty aluminium foil and freeze it. It will keep
for many months in the freezer, deteriorating *very* slowly. Use it in
soups and casseroles when you thaw it. Freeze the leftover gravy
separately for the most versatility.

I reckon things keep forever if frozen. I had a roast beef adn sundry other
bits o meat and stuff in my freezer when I set off to teach skiing in the US
last november, and when I returned in May, they were still there. et them
all and didn't die or anything. Maybe you could chop the turkey in half,
leave one half in the freezer and cook the other half? Or cook the lot, chop
it up, freeze it, and make some lovely stock with the left over bones and
stuff.

The traditional thing to do is to eat the leftovers for a few days in
various forms like sandwiches, soup, tetrazzini/a la king/pot pie,
fried rice, then throw the rest away because everyone is sick and
tired of it. -aem
No kidding. Sometimes it makes me wonder -- why do they make us eat
turkey? --!
LOL. I'm with the "throw the stuff out" crowd. Actually, I'd rather
not have to make it to begin with.
I can begin to sympathise with that attitude. :-)

Actually, I'm following up to say:
(1) thanks everybody who responded with suggested solutions; &
(2) the crisis has largely been averted! :-)

When I called back at the pub later to pick up the "turkey" it turned
out to be just a pack of frozen turkey breasts "Self-basting Ezyroast
Turkey Breasts" to give the full marketing title.

Now, just having turkey breasts markedly reduces the variables to
contend with, and that's clearly a Good Thing. Also, I found enough
freezer space to store the package, thus postponing any final decision
into the indefinite future. (At which point I will probably be back
here seeking recipe suggestions for roast turkey breasts. :-)

Mind you, at 3.2 kg there's still a fair bit of protein involved here.
(And, on that point, our Coles supermarket is presently advertising
specials of "large 32" whole turkeys (3.2 kg) and "large 36" turkey
breasts (3.6 kg) -- thus demonstrating that the part *can* be more
than the whole. :)

Thanks again, mates.

Gosh -- the local Woolies has whole birds up past 6 kg! But the American
turkeys seem to be a lot bigger -- 20-30 lb!

I have had a bit of a saga trying to find a turkey (we have 6 adults and two
kids coming, so a turkey was the most efficient solution). Went to one
Woolies on *Monday* and all the turkeys they had were thawed or thawing. As I
only wanted a small one, it seemed a bit unhealthy to have a thawed turkey
hanging around the fridge for more than a week. The guy in charge had gone
home, but they knew they weren't getting more turkeys the next day.

Went to a nearby Coles on the Tuesday. All the Steggles turkeys were gone
except one, but there were plenty of Smart Buy birds. Seems nobody wants to
gamble on a cheap Christmas bird! I took the remaining Steggles bird to the
checkout, and wouldn't you know it, half the barcode (including the numbers)
was gone, and they couldn't look it up on the system because a solidly frozen
turkey is a "fresh product" and not on their database. Then the bloke went
off and couldn't find the shelf tag. I should have asked them to sell it to
me for $10, but I just told them to leave it; I was getting late for the
school run. You can imagine how annoyed the people behind me in this
supposedly 'fast' queue were getting -- the shelf runner took ages!

Finally bought a 4kg organic turkey at the Woolies yesterday. It's thawed,
but I think 3-4 days in the fridge is safer than 8.

There were a whole heap of birds with some kind of pre-seasoning -- not
stuffing, something involving lots of numbers -- at Woolies. Erk!

Must remember to buy another turkey after Xmas to eat later. I love turkey,
duck and goose. Mmmm, fat...

Oh boy. You can tell it's a US recipe. everything pre-prepared, packaged,
tinned.
salads come in bags, mushrooms in punnets pre-sliced.
There's a popular xmas thing, had it in vermont, of "french style" tinned
green beans, with some kind of tinned fried dried onion on.

3 cups cooked turkey, chopped

2 cups grated Cheddar
1 small can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 cup sour cream

Rather rich.. a cup of mayonnaise? plus the same of sour cream. Very
american, they pile everything in, and the result is rich and quite stodgey.
Poultry seasoning... some kind of jar of salty chemicals.

Memories of every xmas since 1999..
glad I'm in Oz this year! Couldn't have stood much more of that kind of
food.

The rice there is awful. It's all been "enriched" with some mineral or
vitamin, it's all been fiddled with. Most of the rice on the shelf is "fast"
rice, you can imagine how that comes out. You can find "organic" rice but
even then sometimes it's been altered. Just ordinary, normal, plain food is
a rarity there. I'm not exaggerating!

According to the AMA, 31 percent of american adults 20 years of age and
over are classified as obese, compared to 23 percent in 1994. So much
for all those pointless low fat foods, awareness of same, etc...

Then you have recipes like that, heh.

Still, Australia is usually only a decade behind the yanks in most trends...

Very true. It scares me. I went shopping in a big mall today (mostly don't)
and for a minute I got quite confused and wondered if I was in the US. there
was a Payless Shoes. eek! And then a GNC vitamins shop. There's this
creeping adoptation of American stuff. I hope we don't eat stodgey,
over-egged food... they kind-of put everything in it, but end up with
something stodgey and rather awful. But look at our pizzas, our chains are
US or US-inspired, and the pizzas are thick, stodgey cheese and fat fests.
I fear the worst.

Welcome aboard - Y'all

As a young bloke(30 years ago) pizza was brilliant . Grumpys - under
the ramp to the roof top parking over Boans Innaloo - BEST hawian ever
- Polcinnellas in Beechboro road Bayswater and who could forget the
Chip Butties from Gay Gordons at Scaborough (on a Friday nigh watching
the burnouts in the bottom car park ) or the hamburgers from Hamburger
Hill !

Ahh the memories
Now that was great food.

I would have said malls were areas of streetscapes which were now
restricted to pedestrian traffic only and where most of the retail
outlets were independent of each other with no overall controlling
body other than local government.

Shopping Centres are off-road stand alone aggregations "under one
roof" (albeit with their own road network and parking areas) which
have a controlling commercial entity.

Plazas? I dunno. I've never met a specific "shopping plaza" that I
can recall. To me, a plaza is a more open space than a road -- think
something like a town square -- and, to my mind, is more akin to a
mall than to a Shopping Centre. YMMV.

Cheers, Phred.

Aaah fond memories! Hanging over the railing outside David Jones checking
out who went up and down the escalator or into the Bernina Shop. But since
they stuffed Civic by building that new sodding Dendy area, I won't go near
the place. Even Riverside is a challenge these days and that is almost as
big these days as the old Monaro Mall was.

Yep, I can still "see" Waltons, and the coin-operated kids ride machines
outside. The floor was black and white tiles. And cars were able to drive
around what became City walk, Garema Place and Petrie Plaza. It's a mess
now, I was there yesterday, walking the long walk from the Target bit to the
Dendy bit. There's just so much of it. I much prefer Kingston, but
sometimes you need the shops in Civic.

Riverside is awful, the shops are vile and it's full of, er, "interesting"
people. I do a lot of my shopping now in the Quean B.

That fantastic cookware shop in Kingston - drool! But I haven't yet felt a

That's a very mannerly description of them. But I do know exactly what you
mean. I had occasssion to go to Emergency at Q/byan hospital recently after
midnight. Not a soul there but me and the medicos. I commented that I was
suprprised to be the only one there and the quack made the observation that
at that time of night, they generally only had people there because of anti
social behaviour. Having been there previously with a family member who had
a medical emergency and when it was chock a block full of Riverside types, I
knew exactly what he meant, as I do with your description.

I still call it that too, but I believe the title is "City link" or
somesuch. I like Mother Nature but don't get there as often as I might.

How is your garden looking these days? You should have had some good rain
recently. I can't remember when my roses looked so good.

According to the AMA, 31 percent of american adults 20 years of age
and over are classified as obese, compared to 23 percent in 1994. So
much for all those pointless low fat foods, awareness of same, etc...
Then you have recipes like that, heh.
Still, Australia is usually only a decade behind the yanks in most trends...
Very true. It scares me. I went shopping in a big mall today (mostly don't)
Since when have we called them Malls?
Since at least 1980 (eg: Rundell Mall, Adelaide / Smith St Mall, Darwin).
Since when have we called it Rundell Mall? I always called it Rundle Mall.
Maybe your [sic.] more Americanized that [sic.] you realized.

When did I say 'your' in place of 'you're'?
Why is 'Rundell' [sic.] 'Americanized'?
When did I claim I wasn't [sic.] Americanized?

Your pedantry is really getting boring (along with the other tedious
oz-debater).

Why is 'Rundell' [sic.] 'Americanized'?
Because it's an American name.

When did *I* claim that you claimed you weren't Americanized? I said you
were MORE Americanized than you realized. You plainly don't recognize how
truly Americanized you have become.

I assume you're referring to Dyna Soar?

When you call the Mall, how does it respond? Does it get upset when
you call it Rundell instead of Rundle?
