What is the shelf life of a Butterball turkey?

Asked a year ago
The shelf life of a Butterball turkey varies depending on the form in which it is purchased. Fresh Butterball turkeys can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days after their sell-by date. However, if you plan to cook your turkey beyond that time frame, it is best to freeze it. Frozen Butterball turkeys, on the other hand, have a shelf life of up to 2 years when kept at 0°F (-18°C) or below. To maintain optimal quality, it is essential to follow proper storage guidelines. Additionally, it is advised to always check for the expiration date on the packaging and adhere to it for optimal food safety and taste.
