Costco Thanksgiving Meal Kit Includes:
Each kit includes 1/2 of a bone-in turkey breast, mashed potatoes, green beans, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and gravy.
Servings in the Turkey Dinner Kit
The Thanksgiving Turkey kit package says it serves 7-8 adults. Maybe I just eat a lot, but personally I think that’s generous…I would plan on 5-6 if it were me (and was going to serve some salad, rolls, or other sides), or 4 if you have big eaters, aren’t serving additional sides and/or want a little leftovers.
Full disclosure, I’m an Italian Mom and I am known to over prepare food, so take the former with a grain of salt. Luckily, I also really like leftover Thanksgiving sandwiches lol, so I prefer to err on making too much 😉

This was available today at my store in Frisco, TX. My question is do I need to freeze it or can it stay in the refrigerator until Thanksgiving next week?
Thanks for dropping by! There should be a sell by date on the package. I would guess that it will be okay in the fridge a few days past the sell by date which hopefully gets you to Thursday (but that’s ultimately up to you to decide how long past it – if at all – you are comfortable with).
Turkey dinner available at Carlsbad CA Costco. $32. Really yummy.
Awesome! I’m going to pick one up today – my favorite meal of the whole year! Thanks for letting me know!!
Where area of the country are you finding these in? My costco in Austin, TX don’t have them and don’t know what I’m talking about.
These were in Marina del Rey, CA. When I was there on Monday they still weren’t out yet – I’m going today to check to see if they’re in stock yet. It’s just a short period before THanksgiving. I thought they were in all stores last year – I wonder if they’re just not out yet, or it’s always possible they don’t have them. Hopefully they just weren’t out yet 🙂
I live in Wenatchee, WA, , which is in the foothills in the eastern part if the state. I purchased the meal kit for $36 on Nov 18. My shopper tells me that there are no boneless turkey breasts in any of the local grocery stores, so this is a good option for me, as I am disabled.
Thank you for sharing! Yes, I haven’t seen a boneless breast at Costco – which is surprising actually! They do have a boneless ham, but not the same 🙂 Thanks again for leaving the details, I can’t wait to get mine!
If I buy it about 10 days before Thanksgiving, would I be able to freeze it till the day I need to cook it?
I’m not sure about that. There’s probably a good chance it would all come out fine…but I haven’t done it personally and I don’t think I’ve ever frozen most of the items in the kit so I’m reluctant to say yes. You could ask someone in the deli department, they may have more insight.
How long will this last in the refrigerator after you buy it before you have to cook it?
Thanks for sharing! Do you know when you can order this kir for 2022?
They are available starting about two weeks before Thanksgiving, you’ll find them in an open refrigerated case in the meat department – I don’t believe you can (or need to) order them – in my store there were plenty last year, right up to the day before Thanksgiving.
I have 3+ people for TG this year. How many people does the meal kit feed ?
Is the turkey precooked ? Will it be dry if you have to reheat ?
Thank you!! I had to recycle container before my older parent tried to save it for saving.
