Hi All,
So last year, we had a very sad Thanksgiving. We went out and bought a 16lb bird. We let it thaw and when we went to cook it early Thanksgiving morning we discovered our bird had been abused prior to death (big black and blue marks all over his beautiful white breasts). I have to add this was a Butterball turkey so we thought we did good!
Anyway, maybe everyone else does this already but check your bird prior to the day of Thanksgiving.
We did end up cooking and eating our bird, but the thoughts of what this poor guy went through sat sort of "foul" in our stomachs and it really didn't taste very good.
Happy Thanksgiving All
