Tuck into tradition this Christmas with DukesHill's fine Christmas turkey crown. This 5kg turkey crown is the perfect way to enjoy the ultimate festive celebration with the whole family!
Our outstanding Christmas turkey crowns are easy to cook and sourced from third-generation turkey farmers who have been rearing turkeys for forty years. The turkeys themselves roam freely in grassy paddocks and meadows of the family farm. They are fed a natural cereal-based diet consisting of wheat, soya bean, barley, rape seed extract, minerals, and natural herbs; free from antibiotics and growth promoters.
We are proud to work closely with our turkey suppliers who care about the welfare of their turkeys and ensure their natural North American habitat is replicated as much as possible. To that end, all their birds, roam freely in the grassy paddocks and meadows of the farm from eight weeks of age, to allow a happy and natural lifestyle. They have a large area of woodland, which the birds love to wander around in – and it provides a huge amount of stimulus.
For our Christmas turkey crown, we carefully select suppliers who believe in traditional farming techniques of slow-growing turkeys to gain maximum flavour. The turkeys are plucked by hand to avoid the negative effects on the quality of the bird associated with wet plucking. During wet plucking the entire bird is dipped in hot water, which contains high bacteria levels. Turkeys are game birds and as such they need to be hung to achieve maximum taste and flavour. All of our birds are hung for a minimum of 7 days.
Each 5kg turkey crown is complete with a pop-up timer, cooking instructions and giblets.
