Gobble Gobble!



 Heritage Turkeys




Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching and we wanted to let you know that we are ready and raring to go with some delightful holiday offerings. We are selling heritage and broad breasted turkeys from BN Ranch in Bolinas. Broad breasted turkeys have more breast meat and mild flavor. Heritage birds are a gamier, more flavorful alternative. They have more dark meat and are one of five heritage turkey breeds. But how do you cook your turkey?

Turchetta with Vermouth Gravy
We would like to introduce you to the "Turchetta". Hopefully you are already familiar with the Italian street food, Porchetta (if not, you should come in to the shop and try some), it is a deboned pork belly and loin seasoned with fennel pollen, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper, rolled, tied and roasted. We have applied Porchetta principles to Turkey cooking. We are offering your turkey, deboned and stuffed with duck fat, garlic, rosemary, sage, thyme, salt and pepper, tied up and ready to go in the oven. No pesky bones to carve around, no need to worry about your white meat drying out, no need to brine, all you have to do is stick in the oven, and slice it!

For those of you who are cooking for 2 to 4 people, we are going to be offering ducks, guinea fowl, ham and cornish game hens as well as our usual selection of local, pasture raised meats. Here is a full list of our offerings:
