    Depends a lot on the turkey I suppose. Some store-bought ‘basted’ thing is essentially soaked in brine and ‘natural flavor’ and butter, and a wild turkey is quite a bit drier and tougher and has a kind of rough taste to it from whatever it eats

        Here’s one more cool turkey tidbit, since we have them all over in my neighborhood. They really do fly up into trees to roost! They’re super loud and clumsy, and spend more time aiming than anything. They’ll eyeball the next branch, take a couple steps back, then make a huge racket and the whole tree shakes when they land. They fool no one lol
