AndyParticipantIf you don’t turn it into a turbaconducken, you are doing it wrong.

m3bodyworksMemberTerravia –
I lived in New Orleans for 7 years and I always get my Turducken at Cajun Specialty Meats in Florida who specializes in packaging and shipping all over the country.
I would love to shop locally, but to get a good turducken, CSM is the best. They have tons of cajun sides as well.
If you like spice go for the Canjun Pork Stuffing with Cajun cornbread, but for authentic tastes, do the cajun sausage stuffing with cornbread.
Hopefully, when the new cajun restaurant opens up, they’ll be selling them as well.

LKTParticipantI’m pretty sure Turducken is like lutefisk. Sure, you can buy it, but you’re taking a big chance. It’s really better to learn to make your own. Then you can pass the tradition on to your children.

JanSParticipantyou might ask at The Swinery on Calif. Ave. They may know a local source..

cjboffoliParticipantGood call, Jan. Seems like it would be right up their alley. Though local, sustainable ducks are surprisingly hard to find in Washington State so I wouldn’t be surprised if that is the weak spot. It’s a shame too as ducks tend to do much better than chickens in our wet and muddy locale. But I’ve heard more farmers don’t raise them because they’re expensive to dress. Apparently the machinery (wax dipping contraptions to remove the plumage) is fairly specialized.
The Swinery does get some wonderful Sonoma duck breasts (magret de canard). I pan roast them and they’re as juicy and succulent as steak. Plus you can reserve the fat and keep it in the fridge to use in roasted potatoes, fried eggs, etc. Good stuff!

JanSParticipantI love me some duck…never mind the turkey and chicken :)

WMOParticipantI am not sure if they stock them, but I think Whole Foods meat department will make one for you if you order ahead of time. When I lived in TX there was a place over in Louisiana that shipped also, I cannot remember the name of the town though.

GinaParticipantI may be hallucinating, but I thought I saw one at Metropolitan Market.

tpiccirilloMemberOf course you can’t forget the home of the original turducken – Hebert’s. You see more http://youtu.be/YArCxLrQiE0
