Free range, herb-feb Bronze turkey, is in our opinion the finest and most deliciously succulent variety of turkey there is. The Bronze is a smaller, slower growing breed, typically reared up to 22-weeks. It has a naturally higher fat content, a vital detail which ensures that all important succulence. The Bronze meat is reliably juicy, dense and complex in flavour; it excels on every front, defying the notion that turkey is tasteless and dry.

Bronze turkeys live in small flocks and lead a completely free range life, with the highest environmental and animal welfare standards. They enjoy a natural diet, rich in a wide variety of herbs, from parsley and thyme to chervil and tarragon, which gives the meat an extra rich flavour dimension. The brown, juicy leg meat contrasts beautifully with the white meat of the breasts, resulting in a bird that is sensational to eat. Our free range, herb-fed, whole Bronze turkeys are a stunning centrepiece that will entice people to your table this Christmas, and deliver a meal worth celebrating.

It would be churlish to suggest anything other than the traditional 'trimmings' to accompany your turkey this Christmas; when done well, the classic Christmas roast with pigs in blankets has no rival. However, if you're looking to embellish the table with a couple of unexpected additions, why not consider a pot of braised red cabbage? Its festive spices, combined with grated quince and apple, and just enough brown sugar to balance the vinegar, make it a standout side. Alternatively, roasted Christmas apples could be a brilliant addition to your bronze turkey this year, offering a delightful blend of sweetness and savouriness to complement your festive feast.

Don't forget the potential for these leftovers to become sensational meals in their own right. The carcass and bones will make a truly excellent stock. For a healthy Boxing day treat, make a broth of turkey stock, with shredded meat, diced carrots, a little rice and a good glug of sherry. If not that, then a turkey biryani will be just the ticket.
