Never made it FL but eatin them many times...they are awesome...meat to be made by those guys in LA who invented them...but...I'm not an expert on de-boning birds...if you are...SWEET...I'll order from you!!!  ;D Think if you smoked it...only the turkey would get the smoke...additionally...I think smoking all three birds would be overkill?

hummmm.. thinks .... I  think i  heard something  like that on modern marvels back in the  day  a king asked  to cook a  chicken stuffed in a duck ...stuffed  in a turkey.. stuffed in a  pug..  stuffed in a  cow.. then cooked... cant say  how  it  would turn out

Never had it, and thought that USDA did not permit the sale of uncooked Tur-Duc-Hen, but back in July when I was looking for information on this year's Hudson Valley"s Ribfest I came across an article of someone who order an uncooked one, and had smoked it at the ribfest back in '07. If I can find the article I'll post you a link.


I found the link, I had bookmarked it:

I did a tur-chicken.

Shot a wild turkey and put a large roaster hen into it. Came out pretty good. Have to find the disk i have the pics on.

Didnt have a duck at the time.

FLB;

Good luck with you surgery.

If you make the Tur-Duc-Hen let us know how it turns out, and if you were able to purchase an uncooked one or had to go through the deboning.

Where are you in FL, I have read it before but forget.  I live in Orlando, My sister lives in Sarasota and one of her favorite restaurants sells tur duc hen.  It is a restuarant/butcher shop and they sell them whole raw or cooked as a dinner portion, it was actually featured on Food Networks Diners, Drive ins and Dives for the tur duc hen.  I believe the name of the place is Alpine Steakhouse, I will have to double check that.  they are not cheap, I want to say a whole one is about $150

Thanks for trying anyway. We often "go local" and pay more to support a business in our community.

We are in Orlando often, with Disney seasonal passes and 4 kids.
