Turduckhen

disabledBGEWDE

I am planning to do a turduckhen for Thanksgiving. Any suggestions on cooking times and temps?

<p />BGEWDE,
I'v never done one- but in the tradion of Roasting. . .
Cook it till its done.
So- I'd stick a probe in it- set it up with a drip pan w/ plate setter and do it at the reccommended temp.
Its a very dense thing- so it will likely be a low and slow- and possibly a few minutes at a higher temp for crisping at the end.
According to Chef Paul. . . . cook at 225 till internal is 165. . .

<p />BGEWDE:[p]I would allow the customary fifteen to twenty minutes per pound plus a little more in advance of your planned serving time. I believe the internal temperature should be 165º to 170º. Pull when you reach the desired internal, cover, and let it rest till time to eat.[p]I cook mine direct on an elevated grate at about 325º. If you elect to cook indirect you can cook at a higher temperature.

djm5x9,[p]How long do we think this could survive wrapped in foil in a cooler? An hour?[p]Thanks![p]B o B

Mark Backer

djm5x9,[p]Damn, that looks good. Did you turducken it yourself or buy it pre-done?

djm5x9

Smokin BoB:[p]I believe it would.[p]My favorite way to hold meat (butts, ribs, turducken, etc.) is to place the meat in a equally sized glass pan, covered with heavy duty foil. I have a couple of thick, oversized bath towels that I wrap the foiled pan with. In the case of butts, this method has proven to keep the held meat steaming hot for as long as five hours.

<p />Mark Backer:[p]I wish I had the time and talent . . .[p]These folks make it easy for me. They are just off the 120 Loop in Marietta east of The Big Chicken. Traffic wise, Saturday morning is the best time to go there. You may want to check availability before you go.

djm5x9,[p]You know, it seems like a lot of money but then I see the picture and think "I HAVE to have that!!"[p]My wife reads out here all the time. I will now attempt to hypnotize her into craving the turducken, whatever the cost.[p]Turrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

djm5x9

Mark Backer:[p]You are a very brave man . . . If I tried that on The Princess she would put me in "The Bamboo Cage" for a while . . .[p]Fortunately, two things we do agree on are food and s . . . Enjoy them birds . . .

Bob:[p]These folks are not too far from you, so you ought to pay them a visit. They also have some stuffed chickens that are very good too.

Lee:[p]The only way this collection of birds could have been better is if the stuffing included crawfish . . .
