WTF is a Turducken!?!?!?!

Guy in the Super Market yesterday told me he was going to cook one. I can honestly say that this was the first time I had ever heard of one. Apparently, it is a whole de-boned chicken, stuffed into a whole de-boned duck, stuffed into a whole de-boned turkey. Who thinks up this stuff? When the guy mentioned Turducken, I asked him if this was a new technique for crossing the boarder.

For added entertainment value I will leave you with video of people deep frying themselves and their property along with the turkey.

Wait, are you sure the chicken goes into the duck? Ducks are definitely generally smaller than chickens.

From Wikipedia:

Turducken is a dish consisting of a deboned chicken stuffed into a deboned duck, which is in turn stuffed into a deboned turkey. The word turducken is a portmanteau of turkey, duck, and chicken. The dish is a form of engastration, which is a recipe method in which one animal is stuffed inside the gastric passage of another.

Have any of you had this? What's it like?

I've heard of each layer being wrapped in bacon before being stuffed inside the next layer. I've also heard of a turducken being stuffe inside a pig and roasted over an open fire.

Tried deep fried turkey for the first time today and holy shit it was so good. End result is definitely worth the risk of structure fires.

See that just sounds like way too much work. It has me wondering whether it was a guy or a chick that came up with this idea. It's a dish for someone who is incapable of making up their fucking mind.

And to JeremyClarkson, congrats on surviving. My friends and I deep fried Turkeys for a few years. Never had any issues and they were awesome.

Living in the midwest these are somewhat common. We had one at our thanksgiving a few years ago and they are delicious. Ours had some bacon around the outside too. Easily one of the best meals I've ever eaten

I have. It tastes incredible, so good. It's not hugely popular just because it's really expensive to make, but it's a relatively common delicacy.

We had one last year, it was (outside in) whole boned turkey, stuffed with whole boned chicken, then that stuffed with deboned duck. Total thing weighed like 22lbs, cooked with creole butter in the oven. We deep fried our turkey this year too, I could only imagine the turducken deep fried!!!

I'm with you. It may taste great, but it looks like several different animals got run over at the same time; then someone scraped it all off the pavement, rolled it up and stuck it in the oven.

That's why you don't buy it. Go to the butcher and get the birds and stuff them yourself. Not a prestuffeed piece of shit from Walmart

Something went wrong here. Turduckens are sooo amazing. I've made them twice now. It takes a lot of work to debone the birds (have a butcher do it, saves so much time and effort) but once you start laying them all together and putting stuffing between the layers, its amazing. This year I went to jalepeno sausage stuffing between the layers and bacon on top. See the above picture with my friend.
