Think this chicken will be better than turkey?

[stillvicarinatutu]

Right so kids are coming Boxing Day for Xmas dinner. There's only 3 of us .

I bought a chicken crown- now it's a Tesco finest corn fed free range chicken crown with bacon on and stuffed with a lovely sounding stuffing. However - in my fug I thought it was £6.50 .

I wasn't - it was £14 !

I could have got a turkey stuffed joint for that .

However- I'm thinking it's a quality Chuck so might actually be nicer ?
Verdicts please ?

Nicer!!!

All chicken is nicer than turkey! If turkey was actually nice we’d eat it all year

Yeah I figured for that price it should've bloody amazing! Fingers crossed.

I always get chicken for Christmas, I prefer it to turkey, which always seems too dry. It is a bit cheaper and to be honest quite a few people don't know the difference. It will be great..

It looks very nice and it's free range so I feel less guilty!

You have for a free range bird whereas for that price you wouldn’t have got a free range turkey so that’s already going to be far nicer than a factor farmed turkey. It sounds delicious to me, we always have chicken and it’s always SO much nicer.

Enjoy!

It's a finest corn fed free range Chuck so I reckon it will taste nicer than a processed joint 👍

Turkey is disgusting and even my cats refuse to eat cheap chicken. I dont eat meat myself but if I did I'd only eat it once a week and eat real quality stuff like this OP.
If even my animals who eat rats refuse to eat cheap meat then it isn't fit to be eaten.

it’ll be so much nicer!

My SIL who usually hosts us always does chicken and it’s fab. Yours sounds delicious. I personally love turkey and seek it out year-round for sandwiches but I think I’m in the minority (it can be hard to find!)

ive had tastier juicer Asda chickens in a bag for a fiver than a fresh turkey from the butcher, nice life etc costing ££££s
Great choice

You are right. Chicken is tastier than turkey. DH likes turkey at Christmas so we have a rolled breast this year, but next year I call the shots!

It seemed blardy expensive for a chicken crown but on reflection I think I've made the right choice!
