We had the Turducken last night. We can cross it off our foodie bucket list, not sure if it is going to become a tradition. Husband's birthday was Tuesday, but that is my sewing group day and I couldn't monitor the cook. Wednesday and Thursday were both bowling nights. Friday and Saturday I was on my quilt guild mini-retreat -- so Sunday, our usual bowling date day was also bday and turducken day.
I had it in my head that it was fully cooked and needed about 2 hours to slowly heat through -- I was wrong! It does come completely frozen and is "ready to cook", and took about 6 hours. Fortunately, we found this out relatively early but it would have been better for me to realize sooner and have cooking while we were bowling.
It was Cajun spicy, I am a relative hot spice wimp, this was at the upper range of comfort and not needing anything cooling for me. Of course, for the hubby it was mild. We chose the boudin stuffing option, although it does have rice it is otherwise a better option for him than cornbread.
The bird was missing the one wingtip. After cooking and cooling a bit, for serving you take the wings off, then you cut in half down the middle long way, and then you cut slices across the bundle. Although beautiful, the breast came out rather dry.
