Where are you getting your Turkeys?

after they said this morning that half the free range had been culled, and that many farmers are contemplating having those remaining, killed prematurely, and frozen,
it seems questionable if many of the regular outlets (bought our kapon in aldi last year) will have stock.
It's curious that turkey prices the majors are showing are not significantly inflated vesus last year (yet), equally that christmas food already on sale has not inflated, despite the basics rocketting.

Bought a frozen Taste The Difference at Sainsbury's this weekend. Trying to de-risk Christmas a bit this year.
Also bought a frozen crown from Tesco a couple of weeks ago. Had one last year and it was great

I'm working Christmas day and Boxing day, so we're having hunk of lamb (haven't decided on leg or shoulder yet) on Christmas Eve instead.
Same, Turkey is sub par.
Shoulder, fat side up, and low and slow, covered also.
The fat renders through and gives it a superior taste and texture.
It's also usually cheaper.

M&S pre-ordered with a few over things.
Are the pre-orders guaranteed - or can they substitute ?
but a bird in the freezer is worth two on pre-order.

good idea, just need to make room, recommission the old fridge-freezer in the garage (1Kwh/day)

Turkey? what is this America?
Turkey also cook it, put it in the fridge and then smell it... fowl like dog doodoo or something has died.
Chicken for me thanks, I'd rather eat a chicken nugget or a chicken burger with my Crimbo dinner if I had too
