Is it okay to marinate a turkey for 2 days?

It depends on the marinade. Some marinades are safe to use on turkey for up to 2 days, while others should only be used for a few hours.

Marinades that contain acidic ingredients, such as vinegar, lemon juice, or wine, can help to tenderize the turkey and add flavor. However, these marinades can also cause the turkey to become tough if they are used for too long. It is best to marinate a turkey in an acidic marinade for no more than 24 hours.

Marinades that do not contain acidic ingredients, such as olive oil, herbs, and spices, are generally safe to use on turkey for longer periods of time. These marinades can help to add flavor to the turkey without making it tough. You can marinate a turkey in a non-acidic marinade for up to 2 days.

When marinating a turkey, it is important to keep it covered and refrigerated at all times. This will help to prevent the turkey from spoiling.
