No but I upset the people at Kelly Tarltons Aquarium last week when they were showing off a Green Turtle they had rescued and I told them I had eaten a lot of Turtle when I was posted in Singapore in the early seventies.

My old chinese flatmate said chicken feet were meh, she much preferred goose and duck fett as they were "chewier" . She was fucking good value

Nice

Good on ya Russian !!

Can't say that I have eaten them. How ever, I now have a new goal...... I do like chicken feet, steamed with chilli, so turkey can't be that different??

Toby would be laughing his socks off on how this post has sunken to the depths of what turkey feet tastes like good on ya guys!

I didn't want to annoy the farmer by using the fence posts as a cutting board for the bush knife. I have a cleaver that will deal with the feet pronto

Breast meat is so tender. Looks like its been corn fed.

They've been living in the tall grass that's gone to seed. It's like a grain almost.

Going to be awesome!


Probably gonna cook the breasts in chermoula seasoning.

And have some grilled brie and Cranberry sauce on the side.

Legs may be done in the oven with a butter sauce as a baste

Should be fine since we're now in Decemba. And what on earth are you doing still being up at this time of night?

Good to see the old Tobemeister shottie is still seeing some action.

good to see you have found "the load" its simply the ducks nuts for rabbits too.

Well done mate nothing like some Wild Turkey
Good luck with getting a deer.

so there is that saying about feeling like a turkey on xmas day!Ah sure as shite didn go a lookin for trouble maabel ,but ol trouble suuure found me!

Well @Rushy mate,whilst living in Ho Chi Minh city for three years,you couldn’t escape the smell or cooking of bird feet....the buggers love them,not sure where the rest of the bird was but the side alleys were full of habatchi-cooking mothers ,cooking feet........only time I could eat them was with a full belly of Tiger piss,....and the thought of eating chippies.......the farts were horrendous!!!

Don't know how many wild turkeys you have eaten, but bear in mind the legs are ridiculously tendinous. Serving a leg up to grandma on Christmas day would be amusing to say the least! We had some turkey recently (although shot at the beginning September). Smoked/barbecued and it was delicious!

It was heaps of fun! They're not shot at very much so not too hard but the whole shooting on the wing was new.

Spooked one at the top of the waiorongomai Valley. But nothing else seen.

Bugger all I'm afraid.

I have wood smoked the legs and finished in the oven. Tastes fine. But I think I over cooked a little. Not the most tender.
