Hatched at the beginning of summer and encouraged to run wild in large countryside fields until Christmas.
Perfection cannot be hurried
These exceptional Free Range Bronze Turkeys forage on a natural diet of grain and are then hung in the feather, like game, to mature the flavour.
They are then dry-plucked and dressed by hand. Perfection comes in time and cannot be hurried.
When ordering allow ½ kg per person.
As these are naturally reared birds you will get some weight variations.
Please order by Weight Category bearing in mind that our weight categories are referred to by their low points eg:
5kg will be a minimum of 5kg - but could be heavier
Available from 19th December. Some weights available pre-19th December

Free Range Bronze Turkey
INGREDIENTS: Free Range Bronze Turkey
ALLERGEN ADVICE: For Allergens, including Cereals containing Gluten, see Ingredients in Bold.
Cook thoroughly
Free Range Bronze Turkey
Roasting
Weigh your turkey after stuffing.
Cover the breast with strips of bacon or smear with softened butter then cover loosely with foil.
Preheat your oven to 190°C (180°C for fan assisted ovens), 375°F, Gas Mark 5.
Less than 4kg weight? Cook for 20 minutes per kg then add another 70 minutes cooking time at the end.
More than 4kg weight? Cook for 20 minutes per kg and add 90 minutes cooking time at the end.
Remove the foil for the last 40 minutes to brown the top.
Ovens vary, so always test your turkey to make sure it is thoroughly cooked. Pierce the thickest part – this is usually the leg of a whole turkey - with a skewer or sharp pointed knife. Hold a spoon underneath to catch the juices as they run out. If they are clear the turkey is cooked. If they are pink it needs further cooking. Or use a meat thermometer and an internal meat temperature of 75˚c.
After Roasting allow the Turkey to stand for 15-20 minutes in a warm place – it won’t go cold and will be easier to carve.
All our Geese, Chickens and Turkeys come with their own little pop up timers to help you.
