There seems to be some kind of autocorrect issue with your last option

 

Au contraire -- deboned chicken stuffed inside a deboned duck stuffed inside a deboned turkey -- each bird is covered in dressing so when sliced you get this:

For autocorrect read messed up nonsense

As long as the chicken and duck are de-skinned as well as de-boned, because their skin is not going to get crispy otherwise, and non-crispy skin is a definite no-no.

Looks like a load of shite

Throw the Chicken and Turkey out and just eat the duck

Alternatively just throw the lot out and get a nice bit of venison

[TheHowieLama]

This is about Thanksgiving here -- let me assure you either Turducken or Deep Fried Turkey are the correct answers. 

 

 

BTW - anyone who has not had Turducken with andouille cornbread stuffin can get straight to turfuckin at this point.

[Champ]

Turkey is horrid.

Gotta disagree with you there, Tony

[mattyq]

Oh, my god, I've found my soul mate!

Haha, this is exactly the right time of year and weather for some corn beef hash...going to do some on Wednesday for sure

 

 

I've had it with chunks of potato but much prefer it with mash, mustard, onions, beans, grilled and HP sauce.

I prefer the chunks as it gives another texture 

Everything else, yes, although I add some marmite and sprinkle cheese in top of the spuds

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Turkey is horrid.

 

Not if it is done right mate. 

[Tony Moanero]

Not if it is done right mate.

How do you suggest cooking it, mate?

[TheHowieLama]

Next to steak and shrimp - then pass on the turkey.

[Tony Moanero]

I love corned beef hash. I prefer potato chunks.

Picked up the last of the green tomatoes from the allotment today to make chutney.

 

No idea how it will turn out. I've only made chutney once before (one of 7 million things I've had to do to use up all the homegrown courgettes) and I haven't eaten any of that yet.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Fuck it first, adds a nice bit of salt. 

 

Seriously, I always massage herb butter into the breast under the skin. Stick two peeled red onions and a whole lemon (pricked to let the juice flow) up its arse. Cover the breast in thick bacon rashers, wrap in foil and then roast at 190°C (last 30-40 minutes without foil and bacon). Got an old dairy cook book and the cooking times always work for me and our oven.

 

Weight:          Cooking time:

 

6-7lb               2.00 -2:15 hours

8-9lb               2:30-2:45 hours

10-11lb           2:45-3 hours

12-13lb           3:00-3:15 hours

 

and so on...

And what do you do with the poultry?

[lifetime fan]

Let me stop all the arguments now.

 

If turkey is cooked right, it isn't horrid, it can actually be quite enjoyable.

 

However, I can't think of a meat cooked right that would be worse than turkey.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Take it down to the pub once we've feasted on my latest wife.

Well in fella.

[Rico1304]

I've just done pork belly and dauphinois potatoes. Piss easy but fucking lovely. Can hardly move now.

[PestiRed]

Decided to make a jambalaya whilst working from home. Thought I could time things between conference calls but I was wrong. Kitchen looks like a bomb site

 

Will be worth it in an hour or so though

[Lee909]

Just had a Sweet Potato and Mince curry

[VladimirIlyich]

I used to take my own dinner when corned beef hash was on the menu. Despise corned beef.

[Lee909]

Weirdo

[SammyAftershave]

Weirdo

 

You took the word out of my mouth. Vlad just copped my first ever neg. It felt good.

[PestiRed]

That was genius. Recipe for you all. Recommend a bit more stock as I found mine going dry before the rice was fully cooked and had to top up

I had haggis, neeps & tatties last night for St Andrew's Day, fucking lovely.

 

Asda had run out of whisky sauce though, which was a bit of a twat & we had to improvise with gravy.
