Really Josh? Those are some freakish BIG turkeys and I see why you "Had to get them"!!!

Are you going to keep them frozen or just play with them? Maybe you could sit your turkeys on a pillow next to your computer and teach them how we roast them...just throwing out an idea :grin:

Scary empty freezer

I can readily find 26 pound+ turkeys at the store.

Those are small birds... We are rising turkey for the deli business...50# birds with very little drugs.. Not going to fit a normal oven!!

Sure but can you dress them up, talk to them and pay with them?

How about having them sleep with you or take them on walks?

That sweet Shirley will swallow up all three with room to spare. Of course you will be eating turkey leftovers until about next February. :heh:

First of all that bird looks INCREDIBLE....secondly did you take a picture of that turkey next to a small child so I can compare how big the bird really is?? :noidea:

That is freaking hilarious, it looks like someone cut an orange in half and then slid the two halves under the skin. Very creative!:laugh:

That is some great looking bird, bet that woodfired rotisserie made for some really good eats:thumb:

I certainly don't mean this as a criticism of how you tied up that turkey, but I came across this a while ago and use it for all my whole birds, especially when using the rotisserie.

I just figured with everybody getting ready for the upcoming holiday cooks that it might help somebody. Trussing really helps with a uniform cook.

jbounds286 · Nov 19, 2015

yes i used that trussing method last year...on this cook i kinda just threw some string around it...and as u can see it didnt hold lol....T day i will be doing the alton brown method for sure again
