Turducken in Brooklyn
I heard of a turducken before, but I never actually seen one or knew of a place which sold them. Today we went to Yore Meat Market on Fort Hamilton and 71st Street. On the counter was the flyer to order your holiday Turducken!
A turducken is a turkey stuffed with a deboned chicken and a chicken stuffed with a deboned duck. We talked to Gary, the butcher about his turducken and apparently it is very popular. Gary is going to be featured on Channel 1 making his turducken.
So I am thinking about ordering one. I’ve never had it before and I am not sure what our family will think, but maybe this will become a holiday classic for us. I don’t love chicken and I don’t eat duck, but our guests do and there are a lot of men in our family so this might be a possibility…..or maybe I just like saying turducken.
Yore Meat market is a classic meat store. I love stores like this. There are so few of them in Brooklyn because of the big grocery stores, but I like the personal service so much better. This store was very busy for a Thursday afternoon as many women stopped in to get fresh meat for their dinner. Gary knew most of them by name! If you are ordering, Facebook fans get $5 off Yore Meat Market (Gary doesn’t know me because I have only been there once but I figured I would post the coupon in case you are shopping there).
Hugs,
