Price of Turkeys

[Bahco]

This year it looks like eating Spam for Xmas dinner as a turkey is on par with gold to buy this year!

A small 10 lb fresh turkey is over £25 round here and a frozen one is not much cheaper.

Are they cheaper in your neck of the woods fellas

do you need a whole turkey?
how about a turkey crown? no waste from the bones..

There was a whole shed load of fresh ones here in Sussex @ a local auctioneers/market last Tuesday I`ll take orders next year @ Xmas - bit late now

Our local Pub in the month before Xmas puts on special turkey dinners with all the trimmings for £16. You have it any day you like. However, you have to supply your own table cloth.
Then for Sunday lunch if you are an oap ( I've been looking like one for years but only just qualified) they do a very nice minny version of it for £4.25. Now that I have had 4, I need to move on to something else, so going down the super during the week to pick out something for Xmas day. As I need to lose a bit of weight I am going to have a nice ham salad.

I have always had a whole turkey before, last year I tried a Turkey Saddle (it looks more or less the same as a Crown) and I can honestly say I have never had better. It cooked and carved very well, tasted great. Only thing, I had no carcase to boil up for stock.
