"You'll basically have a turkey popsicle that maybe looks good, but it's not going to be cooked," said Frank Proto at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York.
"Those are not always effective in determining the temperature," said Angela Shaw, a specialist at the Iowa State University's food safety extension.
Shaw also recommends cooking the stuffing outside the turkey. Getting the stuffing hot enough to kill any germs could mean burning or drying out the turkey, she said.
Experts say to refrigerate leftovers within two hours, since bacteria can grow quickly on food that's left out.
