In the above photo, we used a Creole Sausage & Cornbread Tur-Duc-Hen from Big Easy Foods, but regardless of where you find your turducken, there are a few things you can do to make sure it’s the biggest hit of your Thanksgiving table:
1. Let it thaw completely.
2. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before cooking.
3. Baste with melted bacon drippings.
4. Tuck wings under to protect from over-browning.
5. Use a thermometer. The center must be cooked to 165°.
