Nicole, welcome, Hello, Thank you. 0:01:05.760 --> 0:01:07.959 Thank you you having us. Oh we're good, Scott. We're 0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:12.200 busy today. We're getting ready for our busiest week, so fantastic. 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:16.040 Well, thanks for taking the time. So before we get into. 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:21.880 The meat of it, little Turkey chuck between us Turkey folks, 0:01:22.400 --> 0:01:25.039 tell me about what it means to be the director 0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:27.600 of the Butterball Turkey talk Line. 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:32.399 Well, thanks for asking. The talk line itself started in 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:36.600 nineteen eighty one, so forty four years, the talk line's 0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:39.200 been up and going. I joined the talk line in 0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:43.880 two thousand and one and back then twenty plus years ago. 0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:47.039 To join the talk line, it was a little bit 0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:50.520 different of an interview process. We didn't have to advertise 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:53.520 for it. It was a word of mouth referral. So one 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:57.680 of my graduate instructors at the time, she also worked 0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:00.400 on the talk line and thought you'd be a verat fit. 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:05.320 It's a seasonal position. You know, you're empathetic, you have 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.639 a great food background. Let me give you the referral. 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.200 So she did and I joined back in two thousand 0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.880 and one. It's an amazing job. It is seasonal for 0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:18.000 our team. We have over fifty men and women answering 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:22.160 consumers questions. You know, there's many ways to reach us. 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:25.760 But I'm year round leading the team in the in 0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:29.160 the director position. So I truly love my job. 0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:33.359 It's mainly people calling in to get instructions about how 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:35.880 to prep their turkeys and what kind of turkey to buy, 0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:38.720 and you got it, got twenty coming over. How many 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.440 should how big a turkey should I have? Should I 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.600 have multiples? And then what do I do with this thing? 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:49.079 This suction thing in how do I work? So you're 0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:52.600 doing all the basic stuff right and telling people how 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:57.280 to have a better Thanksgiving experience, right, Okay. 0:02:57.200 --> 0:02:58.880 Do get a lot of questions like that? 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:03.120 Yes, we do, because I don't know either. I mean, 0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:06.120 let me ask you this. Do people carve with a 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:10.040 carving knife more to the because we have those electric knives? Yes, 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.520 so it's more carving knives now, not so much the 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.160 electric saws that you saw the turkey up with. 0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.120 I think it's I think it's personal preference, and I 0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:23.520 think it's family tradition. I'm nearing my fifties and my 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:27.760 dad because I work every Thanksgiving, my folks will host 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:31.960 my four little butterballs, my four kiddos, and they always 0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.200 kind of tease my dad a little bit because he 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.560 comes down with this. He takes it out once a year. 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:40.000 And yeah, you're right, it's at electric carver and that's 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:43.160 his personal preference, right, kind of family tradition. He's always done. 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:43.520 It that way. 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:47.200 But a lot of folks will ask for instructions, you know, 0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:49.840 to carve their turkey with with the knife. We have 0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:52.520 a couple tips and tricks for that. So you're right, 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:56.760 we get questions. You know, how should I go about carving? 0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.240 Should I stuff my turkey? Should I not stuff it? 0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:01.080 And that's where we really like tell people, how did 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:03.640 what's your family tradition? Right? How did how did you 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:06.360 grow up? Because we have advice for quite a bit, 0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:07.440 quite a bit of waste. 0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:11.880 I would like to make a turkey statement. Yeah, I'm 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:16.080 on the side, and I will always advocate for stuffing 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:20.400 the turkey. The quality and the flavor. 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:24.400 It's phenomenal. So did you grow up like that? 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:29.000 My mom was a turkey stuffer? Ditto likewise, I mean 0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:33.440 she didn't mester, she didn't play. Yeah, yeah, she's and 0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:34.880 it was delicious. 0:04:35.560 --> 0:04:35.800 Yeah. 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:38.680 And it's amazing how much stuffing she could pack in there. 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:40.760 It's like it just kept coming out, you know what 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.799 I mean. I let's start with the basics. How do you, Nicole? 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:46.719 How do you choose a turkey? 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:50.560 Well, it depends on if I am looking to fall 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.920 my frozen turkey. You know that's our number one question 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.839 here at the Butterball Turkey Talk Line. How do I 0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:57.560 thaw my turkey? 0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:57.880 Right? 0:04:57.920 --> 0:05:00.560 And so you want to remember it takes twenty four 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:03.000 hours for every four pounds of turkey meat to thaw 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:05.240 on your fridge. So if you do the math, if 0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:07.520 you have a twenty four pound turkey, that's a good 0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:11.080 six days to thaw on the fridge. You can also 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.760 use a cold water back method, So if I want 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.919 to thaw the turkey, I'll use that method. But you know, 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:19.960 I'm working some pretty long hours right now, so I 0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:22.680 may choose something that doesn't require thawing. We have some 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.839 turkeys that are they're just that they're just cooked and frozen. 0:05:26.440 --> 0:05:29.680 It's about convenience, which is, you know, oftentimes what I 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:32.600 need with my four kiddos. Maybe I want to do 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:34.760 a turkey breath, Maybe I want to do ground turkey. 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:36.640 Kind of just depends on what, you know, what my 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:39.480 work schedule looks like, but they're all good options. 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:43.640 How do people figure out what sized turkey they need? 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:47.440 Is there a like a poundage for per person or 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.360 per two people? How does what's what's the metric there? 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:53.000 Yeah, we usually tell folks a pounds and a half 0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:57.240 to two pounds per person, So you know, your family 0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:00.480 of five or six, you're looking ten to twelve pounds turkey. 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:03.760 If you want to have leftovers, definitely go more towards 0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:07.560 that two pound range and you can store your leftovers 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.240 in the refrigerator for three days and then in the 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:12.440 freezer for up to three months. 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:16.559 I don't know if there's a better lunch the next day, 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:20.320 the next to two days, because it's that weekend, right, 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.360 because if Thanksgiving falls on Thursday or Friday, right now, 0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:26.600 you got all weekend to watch football? Yes, just and 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:31.720 just grind on on turkey sandwiches with stuffing. Yes, there's 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:33.600 there's no better lunches. 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:37.800 Turkey nachos, what yes? What? Yes? And my kids love 0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:40.760 that because they can just add their own toppings, right. 0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:42.240 Kids want to do that, They kind of want to 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:44.920 make it their own. Those are delicious, right. So, if 0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:47.320 you guys have shreded turkey leftover, throw it in a 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:50.360 plastic baggie and try it. It's pretty good. 0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:53.640 Let check it out. What's the best way to tell 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:56.560 if the turkey is done ready to go? 0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:59.719 The safest way we're all about food safety year at 0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:03.279 the top, is to use a meat thermometer to check 0:07:03.320 --> 0:07:03.640 for done. 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:03.800 This. 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:06.400 You don't want to overcook the turkey, but you definitely 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:08.920 don't want to undercook it either, Right, So it's going 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:12.480 to register one seventy in the thigh and one seventy 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:16.240 in the breast for best eating quality. But for folks 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:18.480 like us who like the stuff and carry on our 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.520 mom's tradition, you can take that meat thermometer, insert it 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.560 right in the center of the stuffing, and when it 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:25.880 registers one sixty five, your turkey's done. 0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:28.280 Huh fantastic? 0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:28.640 All right? 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:32.880 So what is the number one turkey mistake people will 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.040 make every Thanksgiving? 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.960 Well, As a working mom and having four kids and 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:42.360 a lot of different schedules, I think people need to plan. 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:45.200 You know, ideally, I'm a little bit of a paper 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:48.400 and pen girl myself. But regardless if it's paper and 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:50.640 pen or you know, you keep your list on your phone, 0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:54.040 try to plan in advance. Right, even though I have 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.520 cooked a lot of turkeys, I will go ahead and 0:07:56.600 --> 0:07:59.640 list out everything that I'll need in advance. I'm also 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.720 all about convenience too, so I may opt for a 0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:05.920 throwaway disposable pan saves it a little bit of a 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.000 cleanup saves with a lot of the cleanup, Or if 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.240 you want to use an oven cooking bag, we can 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:14.400 give you instructions for that. It's more of a moistic method. 0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:17.600 It's it's tender, juicy, delicious and all of the mass 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.320 is contained right in that in that bag. A lot 0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:25.480 of folks will want to put their own stamp, I 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:29.280 guess on there, you know, Thanksgiving turkey. So they're very 0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:32.240 grateful when they call and we have instructions. Yet we 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:35.120 have the traditional oven, that tried and true method, but 0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:38.480 maybe they want to try outdoor grill. You know, we're 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:42.320 here in Chicago, so it's weather permitting on Thanksgiving. Deep 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:47.120 frying that's been popular since for years. It's been very popular. 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:50.280 There's some safety, there's some safety things you want to remember, 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:52.680 but it's a delicious turkey. 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:56.080 Deep deep frying a turkey is its actually a good method. 0:08:56.480 --> 0:09:01.880 It's delicious, really, it really is. Have you ever prepared? Okay, 0:09:02.280 --> 0:09:05.520 So just from a food safety perspective, you do want 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:07.599 to keep in mind that, you know, you want to 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:10.480 have the right oil of choice because of that higher 0:09:10.840 --> 0:09:13.160 smoke point that you need. Peanut oil is a great 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.880 option you want, you know, you want to remind people 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:20.280 to do it outside and their their fryer outside. Make 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:22.640 sure that turkey is fully thawed, right. We don't want 0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:25.960 those ice crystals to to you know, spatter on that 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.320 hot oil. That's that's where you could have, you know, 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:31.040 an issue. But it's delicious. 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:32.240 It's very good. 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:36.560 Usual, your fourteen pound turkey or less is the most 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:39.360 ideal size for that fryer. It's delicious. 0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:51.040 So what's the largest turkey you can get? 0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:55.920 Well, we do get a lot of phone calls usually 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:58.520 twenty six to twenty eight pounds. That's a that's a 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:02.439 pretty large sized turkey. It's it's yeah, it's a it's 0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:07.040 a good sized turkey. But if you're looking for a 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:09.000 lot of yield of meat, what you can go ahead 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:12.600 and do is purchase purchase two smaller turkeys. You can 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:15.040 even cook them side by side in the oven as 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:18.800 long as they fit side by side. And we can 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:21.200 give you instructions on that too. So some people might 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:23.400 do that, or maybe they just want some more white meat, 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:24.920 so we can tell them to get a bone in 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:26.760 or a boneless breast. That's a great option. 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:28.800 All right. 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:33.640 Let's say somebody overcooks their turkey. Is there any way 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:34.160 to save it? 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:40.560 Well, we're always thankful that if we get that phone call. 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:43.360 Really it's not a food safety issue, right, you haven't 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:46.720 undercooked it. Because we do have some of those conversations 0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:49.920 if you overcook it. You know, you may just want 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.960 to use a we may talk through some gravy recipes 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.360 it up, right, Yeah, and maybe what not to do 0:10:57.520 --> 0:10:59.440 next time. Right. We just kind of walked through it 0:10:59.480 --> 0:10:59.959 a little bit. 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.600 Try to help them as best we can, right, make 0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:05.840 them feel good. There's a little bit of helpe there 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:11.079 with the grid. Yes, So what's the wildest or most 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:15.320 humorous call that you've ever taken, like something like a 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:18.160 screaming emergency or something or yes. 0:11:18.600 --> 0:11:21.640 And some of our callers, some of our team rather 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:24.720 they have ten years of almost forty years almost you know, 0:11:24.760 --> 0:11:27.160 the entire existence of the talk line itself, and we 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:30.880 get those repeat callers who call and want to speak 0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:35.280 to those specific individuals every year. And sometimes it's you know, 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:38.200 for turkey advice, or sometimes it's the creative ways. You know, 0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:41.480 we'll hear the people will fall and we've heard electric blanket. 0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:46.640 We've heard you know, countertop thawing, which is not ideal. 0:11:48.280 --> 0:11:50.360 But those are some of the really nice calls that 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:54.400 we get. Sometimes people call for for the turkey advice, 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:57.400 but a lot of times some folks are lonely on 0:11:57.480 --> 0:12:02.560 Thanksgiving week too, so there's something to be said about 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:05.120 And I just got done saying this to one of 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:07.600 my colleagues.
