    Strong work right there.  I never realized the work in skinning a whole turkey and breaking it down.  
    Try it with a pig sometime. Bring a cooler. 
    The amount of fat compared to a chicken was surprising
    I’ve never spatched a turkey before today. I need better scissors. Quite a difference from yard bird for sure.

    Brother Tex, if you never take my advice again, take it now my friend. Buy yourself a pair of these. This is the 11” inch version. They will cut through a turkey like it ain’t even there. They also make an excellent castration instrument on small animals when scrotum preservation is not a concern. 

    Again, be sure to get the 11” version. Not the smaller ones.  

    Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Oh hell yeah! Fanfriggintastic. That’s the kind of mayhem that says Thanksgiving with a capital T. 

    And BTW, that’s about M-F worth of SV eggs for caliprince alone. I swear that kid will turn into a chicken soon.

    Thank you, Scottie. Scrotum preservation Is rarely a concern when I castrate small animals. Ordering now.
