| the life cycle of a Burton holiday turkey |
Not any old turkey, the holiday turkey.
Many turkeys see that last of their useful life in Burtonia. We make turkey on the regular and most are quite irregular. Most are "utility" turkeys; missing a wing or a leg or the skin. Mike has a gift for finding them on sale on sale - the record is $0.61 per pound. We are not talking about those mundane and average turkey times. If you know Burtonia you know a regularly irregular slab of meat wouldn't warrant much chatter.
We are talking about a holiday turkey. The real deal. The few times each year that call for a full price fancy turkey sporting all appendages. A turkey that requires its own shelf in the fridge. A turkey that weighs more than a kid in grade two. A turkey you can show your friends and take pride in. A turkey with pomp, circumstance and puffy breasted ego. The kind of turkey that makes a statement. I am turkey and I am here. Behold me.
Break out the good meat thermometer and melt a stick of butter. Thanksgiving is finally here. AB
