Turkey leg quarters?

I've seen legs, but have never seen thighs. Maybe a butcher could help get those or cut them from some turkeys and sell the whole breasts separately.

i have seen quarters sold at one store in my area but mostly just the legs. and they are still hard to come by.

If you have a Rouse's near you they sell the turkey leg quarters pretty much year round.

I've got to say I've never seen turkey leg quarters in Rouses and I regularly shop the one in Mid-City and on Veteran's Blvd. in Metairie.

only time I ever see them is after the holidays when they break down and sell the leftover whole turkeys. Turkey dark meat is where it’s at

Seriously? I can see that for chicken on which dark meat is superior. But on a turkey, white is right. Nobody touches the turkey dark meat in my house. I usually just make gumbo with the turkey dark meat on Friday while I pug up the Christmas decorations.

Want to trade?

I seen packages of fresh cut turkey thighs at Zuppardo's in Metairie.

When I was in school up in Ruston the local grocery store I think it was a safeway had turkey thighs on sale often fro pennies a lb they were huge. room maate and I would cook them like roasts slow roast sometimes studded with onion and garlic seasoned mix. They were delicous and I search for them ever since and never see them

Yeah, I'll cut those off too, but just for the flats. Whoever gets the body can also have the drumettes.

If you see a good price I'd get the whole bird and cut it up yourself. If nobody likes the breasts you can save them for gumbo, turkey noodle soup, or shred it for turkey salad.
