I saw a sale on turkeys for $0.29 cents a pound (God bless America!), but I'm only cooking for one and I've never prepared a whole bird before, not even chicken. It's real tempting to buy one but how can I make this work? Usually if I buy a pack of drumsticks or something I put them in individual containers for the freezer and prepare one each day. Is reasonable to cut up a turkey that way? If I roast the whole bird, how can I divide it and store/reheat the cooked meat without ruining it?
How would you divide a 15-lb turkey into one-person portions?

Break down the turkey and then freeze it. Same way as chicken. Put the pieces in freezer bags or wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
