On the advice from my butcher, I purchased a "hard chilled" free range bird
this year. It was on it's way to thawing when I picked it up on Monday, and
is now ready for the brine or rub, if I ever make up my mind!
Do you have a sink large enough to accommodate your bird? My mom always
thawed hers in a sink of cold water. You could try that, especially if you
get a start on it right away.

Happy Thanksgiving, Sheldon and everyone else too.
