If the water was cold you should be just fine, just cook it all the way through.

Happy Thanksgiving :cue:

cook to 160 at the thickest point and it will be fine.  I always thaw in a sink of water and it can take 12 hours easily on a big bird.  No one has ever gotten sick from anything I have cooked ever.  cook and have fun.

especially if there was still ice on the inside.
"Danger Zone" is between 45 and 140 degrees, if there is ice in it, it never got warm enough for bacteria to grow...
