How We Thaw The Thanksgiving Turkey In Florida
In Florida, we do things a little differently. While all our friends up north are freezing, we’re still hangin’ in there around 80 degrees this Thanksgiving weekend in the Tampa area. While the rest of the country is stuffing themselves with pumpkin pie, we prefer key lime. And you thaw the turkey your way, we’ll do it ours. A Florida man in Clearwater has an interesting technique. He actually made the national news with this idea. He tossed his bird in the pool. Watch for him on the news again next week with a gator in his pool.
