Used to have deer roasts and deer chili for thanksgiving. Kinda a celebration of the first deer kill of the year.

Just wait until the market corrects itself.

Turkey prices will be falling faster than the Turkey Drop on WKRP.

This is just a ploy by Big Turkey to jack up prices going into the holidays. Never trust Big Turkey.
