A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

here ya go...

I am makin my list for the grocery and was lookin over the recipe again.... about how long per pound does it take to do a bird this way? I usually do 325 and 20 min to the pound. So i am guessin about thirty min pp with the decreased temp? My papa said the 20 min pp and when the leg moves freely it is done.... and it always is lol. I been doin my turkeys like this for 25 years.

I harvested jerk jakes yesterday and today. Did 2 yesterday and it started raining so did the other one and a cockerel today... They had been ganging up on the roos and cockerels so it was time to go. And last nice day for a while.. supposed to be in the 30's until thanksgiving.
The jake was 11 and 1/2 lbs hatched 5/26
The ones from yesterday were over 12 lbs and hatched 5/9. Todays cockerel was over 6 lbs hatched 5/26, hatched by the same broody as todays jake.

Between 25 and 30 minutes per pound. I always use a thermometer when I do mine.

Hey all. I am back..

I hope to be back way more regularly now.

I have a turkey hen I want to get a picture of for all of you. She is molting so badly, she cannot even fly onto the roost. She has no tail, and is a solid pin cushion. Sort of like Aurora's was.

Are you sure? I have been accused of some of the most vile acts in the last two weeks.....I am thinking of volunteering for a life sentence in prison based on everything they said I have done.......


It all depends of how tired of the normal negative campaign people are...and if they see through the BS.
