Our Turkey Hunt

[PACKFAN]

I don't know what they would wiegh cleaned, our biggest toms have went around 20 lbs with guts in and were 3 year olds. The jakes probably run 8 to 10 lbs uncleaned. They don't taste anything like a turkey out of the store. There is about as much difference in taste as there is between a pheasant and a chicken. About the only good meat you get is the breasts, the legs are all tendons like a pheasant. They are great eating birds, we like to cut breasts into finger steaks, sear them in olive oil, pour in a can of cream of chicken & mushroom soup add a little pepper, turn heat down on low and let them simmer for 1 1/2 hrs. Great over mashed potaoes or rice.[]
