FAQ

What is an original turducken?

A turducken is a deboned turkey, a deboned duck, and a deboned chicken with layers of dressing between each bird. The deboned turkey is laid out flat and a layer of pork dressing (ground pork, onions, bell pepper, and seasonings) is placed inside the bird. A deboned duck is placed inside and another layer of pork dressing is added. A deboned chicken is placed on top and a layer of cornbread dressing is added. The sides of the turkey are brought together and sewn. The outside is seasoned with our famous blend of seasonings, and the result is an explosion of Thanksgiving flavor. You will never eat regular turkey again!
