SEYMOUR JOHNSON AIR FORCE BASE, N.C. --
Military spouses from Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, N.C. and Fort Bragg, N.C., traveled to Butterball University to attend Turkey 101 in the company's headquarters Nov. 17. During the trip to Garner, N.C., approximately 25 spouses learned how to cook, cut and serve a perfect holiday turkey.
The event, hosted by Mary Clingman, director of Butterball's Turkey- Talk Line, provided turkey tips on topics such as cooking temperatures, when and how to thaw, different types of cooking pans and how long to keep a turkey after cooking. When the class was over, the spouses sampled and compared the tastes of turkeys prepared six different ways.
