Jennie-O to Relaunch Turkey Hotline on November 1st

For the 17th consecutive year, the beloved 1-800-TURKEYS (1-800-887-5397) hotline has guided families in preparation for Thanksgiving.

Finally, Jennie-O’s turkey hotline will be open this November 1st! “This year we are offering our trusted hotline as we always do, alongside several new menu ideas to cater to hosts and hostesses alike who want shortcuts to save time, are having smaller gatherings, or are looking for new ways to prepare their turkey,” said Kim Anderson, senior brand manager for the JENNIE-O® brand.

With the hotline, Jennie-O’s turkey experts will be available “for consumers seeking support with their holiday meal planning through to day-of preparations.”

To make it easier to ask for assistance with turkey questions, the company’s experts can be reached in several ways: by calling 1-800-TURKEYS, using live chat on the Jennie-O website, or texting “Turkey” to 73876.

Earlier this year, the company surveyed Americans and found that most people spend up to two weeks planning and cooking their Thanksgiving meals. Jennie-O proudly states that they assist consumers across the country by providing turkey advice through their hotline.

“We know Thanksgiving is a treasured holiday across the nation and we are always looking for new ways to expand our resources even further,” Anderson said. 

In addition to the hotline, Jennie-O wants to give “the best holiday ever” to its consumers by offering new Thanksgiving menus—from Cajun-inspired dishes to classic feasts—donating turkeys to those in need, and participating in major events like the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
