A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

@R2elk I think this is an oxymoron...

Once upon a time I had a gander that must have been really stupid

But, but.... he only ever made the one mistake,


ROFL. One mistake is all it takes some times.......

BTW last night my Stupid Tom that likes to get beat on once a day, looked at me as I approached him on his perch on top the fence...Stood up and gave me a dirty look before jumping down before getting his daily swat...

There is hope for him. maybe...If not I might find a fence to stick his head through......twice...

"Cletus" can be processed any time that is at least three days before you plan to cook him. If you do not have the room in your refrigerator to age him properly, you can age him in a cooler with ice cubes to maintain the temperature around 40°F.

As far as I am concerned you can refer to him as a tom anytime now.

Yea we know we can do the fridge or cooler thing. But we will end up halving him most likely. No big famiy meals anytime soon to have him at. And if i cooked him for us we would be eatin bird for weeeeeks lol! I may look into cannin him though. :) i havent done meat but i do have the pressure canner so that IS an option. But we really do need do him before this other whipersnapper and cletis starts to try bein randy with the ladies. Cletis does not need a redo of the fall and hurtin the ladies.

If you decide to can him, make stock out of his bones to can him in.

All of my canning recipes call for canning meat in salt water. I remember grandma always used stock, so gave it a shot and love it. What ever meal you're making with the meat, there's always a side that can benefit from that rich broth. I also can and use chicken and turkey fat, it's way better than shortening or oil and can often be good in place of butter.:drool
