Description

Our free range bronze turkeys are a traditional slower growing breed, specially selected for their full flavour and succulent texture. The traditional bronze turkey breed has dark feathers, which when plucked may leave small coloured marks on the skin. This is natural and will not affect the quality and will reduce in appearance upon cooking.
The plump turkey crown comes from one of our free range flocks. Crowns are quicker to cook and easier to carve at the table, giving you tender, juicier breast meat to enjoy.... that's why you can taste the difference.

Before cooking: Leave the turkey out of the fridge to temper for one hour before cooking. Refer to the weight label on the front of the bag for the specific roasting time. Preheat oven.

During cooking: Baste the turkey with the cooking juices and rotate the tray every 30 minutes. Remove the foil 45 minutes before the end of the cooking time, baste and return to the oven to allow the skin to become golden brown.
