Turkey Breast Crown
Have gone for this, this year .. wondered if it would be as succulent as a full turkey .. but a full one is so blooming messy .. ripping off the wings and the legs. Have googled and found lots of ways to cook. Without the arms and legs will it be just as good I wonder? Says on the label 'bone in with prime wing' :confused:
Does it have a backside to put the stuffing in ? As I am not the best of cooks any advice gratefully received ... :D Also, has what looks like a drawing pin stuck in it which, seemingly, pops up when it is thoroughly cooked. Love to know the way this works. |

Re: Turkey Breast Crown
No Katex, a Turkey crown is just the double breast, all white meat....and no fighting over the legs or arguments about who gets the brown meat.
I think it is always safer to cook stuffing seprately.....you can use the juices from the turkey crown to make the stuffing. When we have had turkey crown in the past, I have covered the breast with laced streaky bacon......it keeps the breast moist and adds flavour.......you can crumble this cooked bacon over your sprouts just before serving too. We are giving turkey the flick this year.......have gone off it. Will probably have roast Pork or beef. |
Re: Turkey Breast Crown
I've been getting a crown for a few years. Much easier and less waste as it's all meat, no fighting over who gets the legs either.
I turn it over for the last half hour so it's sort of upside down. Makes it nice and moist. |

Thank you Gayle and Margaret ... think I have made the correct decision. Aaah .. see what you mean about the bacon Margaret .. always thought this was just for eating ... which sounded foul (fowl.. tee hee).. of course, the fat will soak into the meat. Eureka !! |

Re: Turkey Breast Crown
Having only me and Reece here i always buy a ready to roast Turkey breast joint that already has stuffing with it. cook from frozen for 2 1/2 hours and thats that, no messing :D
was buying my veggies down at Tesco the other day and Reece can't stand Brussell sprouts, but i always buy them for me at Christmas....i bought 4 single Brussells and they cost me a grand total of............. 8p :D:D:D i don't see the point in buying a pack of them, they'd only get wasted |
