That's a heck of a deal. I'll be roasting the turkey for the church
potluck (someone else can do the ham), and also may be doing the
turkey for TG this year -- we'll be getting together with another
family and they have lots of teenagers and grown-up kids. So I need
whole Toms for both. That's what the frozen one I have already is.
Once we got an expensive "heritage" free range turkey. Over $60 for a
large hen or a small Tom, and that was at least 5 years ago. I was
scared to death I was going to ruin it. It was better than a cheap
turkey, but not 5X better. Not even 2X better.
