Should I let my 14lb bird come to room temp before starting in the oven? Hoping not to poison my guests! Many thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!

yes! take it out for about an hour before cooking to let it come to room temp, and you'll be safe (and your turkey will cook more evenly!).

Thanks, Caroline! What did we do before Food52?! I shudder at the thought...
