Do any of you ever do or get Tur-duck-ens any more?

Rouses has them in the freezer section as well as any meat market off I-10 in Lafayette

A novelty , never ate one that was worth a shite, but cool to talk about and look at

I've made them a few times over the years and it is damn good, but you'd better have a good size crowd gathering to make sure it gets eaten since it is a ton of food just for the stuffed birds alone.

To make one it is really at least a 2 day thing between deboning the 3 birds, making the three different stuffings, actually putting it all together and then the long, slow cooking process to make sure it's done.

Last time I did it I used around a 4 lb. chicken, 8 lb. duck and just over 20 lb. turkey. Damn thing was huge when finished.

Like already mentioned in a prior post, I've made a few over the years, but you need a pretty big crowd to tackle it once cooked since it is a ton of food.

I think the next time I make one I'll use a Cornish game hen with the oyster dressing stuffing, get a wild mallard from friends that still hunt and do that one with Andouille sausage stuffing and that way I can use a much smaller turkey stuffed with cornbread dressing to finish it off.


The last time I made it, the finished bird had to weigh over 30 lbs. between the birds I used and the amount of stuffing. I had a crowd of 25 people and there was a lot of it left over after everyone ate their fill.
