No soaring prices at my house. I have this big turkey ready to go for free. It was 36lb live and 27lbs dressed. I have raised them before, but someone didn't want this one. They didn't have the heart to harvest it, so they gave it to me. I harvested and froze it a couple of weeks ago, and will be ready to go for Thanksgiving.

I don’t think the Turkeys died from Bird Flu. Here’s a report I saw:

My dream is that people will one day come to the realization of how shitty a meal a turkey makes. It may be the worst bird for eating.



most people just suck at cooking a turkey

Spatchcock is the way too go.

Push massive amounts of antibiotics and growth hormones into the turkeys, and they’ll be ready for human consumption in a couple weeks.

It cost more to get bird flu?


I am joking, but that's kind of how I interpreted the headline.

Make some chili

And can also make some cutlets, pound them thin & soak in milk. Then batter them up and deep fry and sprinkle some Parmesan cheese

Make your own sausage or bring some meat to a local processor.

Or I’ll take some :)
