    Well, now you guys have me considering farm-raised "wild" turkey for this year's festivities!

      I’m heading over to the butcher tomorrow and see if he can get me a heritage bird. If not, then I gotta start researching local farms.

    Stopped by the butcher shop today and ordered a 16-18 lb Diestel Ranch turkey for pickup on Monday before Thanksgiving. It’s fresh, not frozen. Will let it rest in the fridge until Wednesday. Going to prep it on Weds by spatchcocking and dry brining :-)

      Let us know how it turns out, I am excited for you. Imagine the first time you used a prime brisket vs a select, or berkshire ribs/butt vs hormell.... that is what you are in for!

    Did one last year. At least twice as tasty as a regular bird, but considering the price is 6-10x a regular bird it has to be a special occasion only.

      That's kind of where I've gotten to with them. But, this Thanksgiving I'm seeing my son the first time in 3 years, so it's going to be artisanal!
