But those 33 cent turkeys are 7% brine or more. The taste is different. Heritage turkeys are over $10 a lb and hard to findTo those who recently slaughtered turkeys, I bought turkeys at the store and even those were just 12 lbs. They had the bigger ones but only in major brands like JennieO. The sale priced birds were all 10-12lbs just.
That said I have 4 so far in the freezer. For $0.33 per pound (at Meijer) you cannot beat that price for meat these days. We enjoy turkey all year round in various ways.
me too!Western suburbs of Chicago.
Very true. I was not trying to compare quality. They heritage quality and quality of a self slaughtered bird are far better than what I bought. I've raised several of turkeys from you over the past few years and found the taste as well as texture of those birds to be far superior. I was just mentioning size comparison and that it is hard to pass ul the good deal.But those 33 cent turkeys are 7% brine or more. The taste is different.

To tell the truth.... I have a small 33 center in the freezer and cooked one up. It's like a different species lol...Very true. I was not trying to compare quality.
