Our birds cook more quickly producing a more succulent tender meat

Roast Termonfeckindelicious Bronze Turkey

Our turkeys are grown to maturity outside with time to graze and forage on a daily basis, this  results in meat that is well marbled with a fine texture and more deposits of fat under the skin . As fats heat more quickly than protein our birds cook more quickly producing a more succulent tender meat

So if you follow our instructions you won’t have any problems

 

  1. Firstly remove the bird from the fridge and leave sit at room temperature  for 2 hours
  2. Preheat your oven to 180 or gas mark 4
  3. Before cooking sprinkling with salt, pepper and place onion in cavity.
  4. Place on roasting tray breast side down, this allows the fat deposits to percolate the breast meat while cooking.
  5. Do not cover with tinfoil
  6. Thirty minutes before the end of its cooking time turn the turkey over to brown the breast ..
  7. The bird is cooked when the juices run clear when you pierce the inside of the thigh with a skewer ..
  8. If they run pink then return to oven for 15 minutes then repeat until the desired result.
  9. Leave the bird to rest for 30 minutes before carving.
