My husband's family came from "elsewhere" too. His sister used to
make a better version of Turducken (without the turkey or the duck).
Chicken, Cornish hen, ground meat.... I forget the layers (which were
boned, of course) and it ended up with an egg. I'm not going to
laugh about the concept. It is what it is. In my sister in law's
case, it was delicious.
