Hello,
I just found a recipe I wanted to share.
First off, you need to know that I used to be a turkey hunter when I lived in North Idaho. Now that I moved to South Idaho, I can’t really turkey hunt that much. I had a way of cooking the turkey, that made it taste very delicious. This is wild turkey, not store-bought.
I took this one down before I moved down to South Idaho. The way I cook them is very interesting. I always had trouble plucking the bird, so I just skinned the whole turkey. After that, I stuff it full of vegetables like apples, oranges, celery, and more stuff. After that, I lay bacon all over the top of the bird. I then fill a pan with a little bit of water, and put the bird in it. When I am done with that, I cover the whole thing with aluminum foil, bake it according to its weight, and when I take it out, it tastes very good. A lot better than store-bought turkey, in my opinion.
Anyway, this brings a question to my mind I wanted to ask the people here. Last season, I took down my first Canada goose. When I cooked it, it tasted very odd. I don’t know if I cooked correctly, or if it’s because it is a goose, and I never had a goose, but does anyone here have a good recipe that I can use for next season?
I hope you enjoy the wild turkey recipe.
