Fresh Prime Turkey Crown
Fresh Prime Turkey Crown
Weight 1.6kg-1.9kgs, Serves 4-6 people,
The traditional centerpiece to your family dinner table this festive season.
Crowns are simply a whole turkey with the legs (dark meat) removed to give you a joint of white breast meat on the bone. Quicker to cook, and easy to carve, many small families opt for a crown to avoid too many leftovers!
Treat a crown exactly as you would a whole bird. You can sit the crown on a bed of stuffing or push flavoured butter under the skin. Why not cover it in strips halal beef macon or perhaps herbs & butter before cooking.
The birds roam freely across their paddocks, eating insects and pecking the trees and hedgerows before returning to their houses at night or to feed and drink. Fallen trees or specially built halal beef macon structures keep the birds active and occupied as they climb and perch. All this freedom, natural light and fresh air makes for a healthy bird and an especially tasty meat for your festive dinner treat.

We only rear our halal free range turkeys, an old-fashioned breed that provides a carcass with fantastic flavour and even coverage of meat. The natural flavour of the bird is made even better by slow growth to natural maturity. This takes 24 weeks and results in meat that's reliably juicy and tasty, with a tender texture and just the right amount of fat.

We agree that it's important to know where your turkey has come from and how it's been reared. Carefully selecting slow growing breeds that reach full maturity naturally. All turkeys have plenty of space to run about in and enjoy natural daylight.
From late summer the turkey’s live in large airy barns that open on to green downland fields. Every day they explore their natural surroundings pecking at the grass and bales in the fresh air. At night they are in large, straw bedded barns with plenty of room. They are fed on high quality feed (a mix of wheat, barley and oats).

Because these joints are normally much smaller than a whole turkey they will cook in no time – so don't make the mistake of overcooking them. If you follow the magic calculation – 20 mins for every kg + 70 minutes if the joint is under 4kg (or + 90 minutes if the crown is over 4kg) at 190°C (Fan 180°C) / 375°F / Gas Mark 5 - you will enjoy a succulent, tasty meal whichever size joint you choose.
