Three birds in one, shrouded in pork products, is no longer the baddest kid on the playground. Ready for this? Behold the turgooducochiqua. [h/t: e]
From smallest to largest:
quail -> cornish hen -> duck -> chicken -> turkey -> goose, with bacon between the layers.
My Brit friend Daisy remarked that she doesn't understand what the fuss is about. She says she has always layered bacon strips on top of her turkey, to add flavor and to keep the bird moist when cooking. But Daisy - three seven animals in one dish? I don't think she gets the uniquely American impulse to take an innocuous Thanksgiving tradition and ramp up the crazy.
To quote our good friends from Spinal Tap: "there's such a thin line between genius and stupidity..."
And if you can't do heavy metal in Dobly, imagine the things you can't (or shouldn't) do with turkey!
