The answer is simple: leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for three to four days. This means you have until the Monday after Thanksgiving to eat all those delicious leftovers or place them in the freezer to enjoy later. If you store leftovers in the freezer, they will be of best quality within 2-6 months.
When you should start cooking: Season the turkey the night before and start cooking it Thanksgiving morning. While it's best to actually cook your turkey on Thanksgiving day, Holzman recommends seasoning your turkey the night before.
