How long after turkey is baked can it stay in the refrigerator?

You can safely store cooked turkey in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.

Here are some additional tips for storing cooked turkey:

* Cool it quickly: After cooking, let the turkey cool to room temperature (within two hours) before storing in the refrigerator.

* Store properly: Wrap the turkey tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or store it in an airtight container.

* Label and date: Label the container with the date so you know how long it's been in the refrigerator.

* Use it within the timeframe: Don't push it past the 4-day limit, as the risk of foodborne illness increases after that.

Remember, these are general guidelines. If you're unsure, err on the side of caution and discard any turkey that shows signs of spoilage, such as an off odor or color.
