I went to our local butchers, spied a nice plump medium sized turkey, and out of curiosity I asked the price, the butcher weighed it, and it came to £51. So I politely declined. Fortunately, our butcher sells cooked turkey joints, so, I bought a few nice thick slices , enough for 3 people, and it was lovely, succulent, no fuss with cooking. I'd much rather in future buy the turkey ready cooked. No left overs.
Today I shall make chicken stew with dumplings.
We are lucky to have a good local butcher, his Gammon steaks and Irish sausages are delicious. I never, purchase meat from a supermarket.
Happy Christmas and New Year, to all on CMB.
