Turkeys are large birds, native to North and Central America. These days, they are farmed all over the world for their meat. Not all turkeys are created equally, however. We like to work with Label Rouge turkeys. These slow-growing breeds have been selected for their meat quality. They are free to roam in the open air and are butchered relatively late in their lives. The result is soft and tender meat with a slightly darker color than that of a traditional turkey, and a little gamey flavor.
