" The turducken took us five and a half hours at 325."
What does the turducken taste like? Does the meat taste like individual pieces of turkey,duck and chicken or does it taste like a unique kind of fowl? John Madden opened one up, with his bare hands, at half time on MNF-his bird fell apart and looked very unappealing-perhaps his caveman cutting technique was the reason.Do the layers stay separate when the bird is carved ? Is there stuffing between the layers? Our local grocery stocks frozen turduckens, from Louisiana around this time-I've always wanted to try it,but the frozen is probably not nearly as good as the fresh. Happy Thanksgiving !

Is there stuffing between the layers?It's got it's own unique taste - but it's good! You can see the individual layers, but not necessarily tell them apart on your plate. The only thing that was discernable as separate was the stuffing; which in our case was a cajun sausage dressing. It was fantastic.
The only downside was when I started carving. Because it looks like a full-sized turkey in the pan, I immediately began to carve it like a turkey, i.e, slicing across the breast. Just remember: it's boneless! Slice all the way down & through - you won't hit any bone/gristle.
If you get a chance to get one - do! It's great!
