How Long To Defrost A Large Turkey Crown. Alternatively in a cool room which must stay below 175c allow 3-4 hours per kg. The size of your turkey will depend on how long it takes to defrost completely but as a rough guide allow about 24hrs for every 2kg of turkey.
Defrosting times will vary - as a guide. I have checked online defrost calculaters which say 27hrs in the fridge. If using a frozen turkey make sure to fully defrost before cooking.
If at cool room temperature below 175c64F than allow 3 to 4 hours per kilogram 2 to 2 12 hours per pound though the time may be longer if the room is particularly cold and make sure.
Use a kitchen paper towel to dry the turkey crown. Allow 4 hours per kg. When defrosting in the fridge recommended allow 8-12 hours per kg. Heat on the defrost setting for 30 minutes followed by shorter five minute bursts until your bird has thawed completely this could take around an hour.
