Meats are kept better in the freezer. Meats can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days if raw and 1 to 2 days longer if cooked. Always place cooked meats in an airtight container. Once you have cooked the turkey, it is best to remove the meat from the bones prior to putting it away in the refrigerator. Not only does it take up less space, but the flavor of the meat stays better than when left on the bones.

To make broth or soup, I don't delay. For best flavor, I immediately stew the bones. A crock pot works great for that. I can throw everything in the crock pot at night and its ready to work with in the morning.

Both the stuffing and the meat on the bones should be removed from the turkey within 2 hours after it has finished roasting. Once they are removed, any leftovers should be refrigerated or frozen.

You should probably remove the meat from the refrigerated carcass within a day of cooking. That will maintain the best flavor of the meat and make it easier to store. I prefer to do that task right after the meal is finished.
