Prep for Christmas lunch (or dinner whatever you call it)

It’s basically the white meat with breast bones intact. All wings, legs and dark meat is removed.

We usually have a butterfly which is as above but minus the bone. Basically it’s pure meat.

Thanks Coops. What do they do with the bits that are discarded then?

Make McDonald’s with it.

Is that true or sarcasm?

Your typical burger (ergo ground beef) is made from 100 different cows, on average.

No idea to be honest. I’d imagine that the volume of remnant meat isn’t that great as it’s not an all year round thing and crown joints are not that popular. Saying that it surely ends up back in the food chain somewhere. Maybe McDonald’s as NJ says, or maybe Bernard Matthew’s turkey burgers.

We had a butterfly this year Mrs Brother got them this year, think it was 25quid three of us had a good feed off it today and there's loads left. Excellent value, plenty left for our usual boxing day of feed of cold meats and chips, old habits and all that

Thanks for the info guys. I was just curious as the last time I ate turkey was exactly 51 years ago today when the concept of turkey crown probably hadn't even been invented but I chose a vegetarian lifestyle 51 years ago tomorrow hence my ignorance about all things turkey related.

Tip of the day, if you are having a bit of of a buffet, get some Snackrite Mega Sausage Roll Puffs, they are absolutely beautiful.

Edit: Don't pay no attention to the muppet doing the review, the ferking wanka, scores them 5/10, I would say 8 at the minimum.

And further more looking into his you tube channel he scores Ben Shaws Dandelion and Burdock 3/10 OMG what an absolute fool, IMO you can't beat Ben Shaws.

I don’t know what tomorrows crisp option will be, but there will be something to accompany the cold meat, home made chips, stuffing, pickles, slaw, beetroot and cheeses. Boxing Day scran is the top meal of the year.

Well, if you get a chance try them, I would think for sure these crisps are just seasonal stock. What kind of slaw are you having? And are you making it yourself?

Aye, it’s a tried and tested Jamie Oliver recipe, enhanced with a good dollop of that Polish mayo.

Branston Pickle nothing else comes close, 50 odd years of rigorous testing has convinced me.
