A few times but not as many as other meats but thats more down to practicality, turkey is a big bird and not really practical for 2 for a sunday dinner.

Down to taste you mean. If turkey was this great tasting bird people would eat it all year round, you can buy small turkeys, they are not all oven busters. Me and the missus can't eat a full chicken between us in one sitting, we have the left overs either later or the next day. Nobody does that with turkey, why? It's a once a year tradition that people feel obliged to keep up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be sparing a thought on Christmas Day for all you traditionalists as I enjoy my succulent chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would roast it then pull off all the greasy skin, roll it into a ball and pop it in his mouth, then proceed to eat the rest of the chicken down to the bones. He was a disgusting pig. I agree though, turkey is infinitely inferior to chicken. I'll be cooking 2 chickens on Christmas day instead of the dry bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
