Here are refrigerator thawing times for various size turkeys: An 8 to 12 pound turkey takes 1 to 2 days to thaw in the refrigerator. A 12 to 16 pound turkey takes 2 to 3 days in the refrigerator.A 16 to 20 pound turkey takes 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator. Pieces of a turkey, such as a half or quarter will take 1 to 2 days thawing time in the refrigerator. To thaw a turkey in cold water, check the wrapping to make sure there are no tears.Then, place the bird in its unopened bag in the sink or in a large container and cover it with cold water.ieces of a turkey, such as a half or quarter will take 1 to 2 days thawing time in the refrigerator.

â¢ Using this thawing method, you should estimate about 30 minutes of defrosting time per pound of turkey. Approximate time to defrost a whole turkey in cold water: - 10 pounds â 5 hours - 15 pounds â 7 hours - 20 pounds â 10 hours - 25 pounds â 12 hours.ou should never thaw a frozen turkey on the counter at room temperature or in hot water. Under either of those methods, the outer layer of the turkey can sit between the bacteria-breeding temperatures of 40Â°F and 140 Â°F for far too long to be safe.
