virgil Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I'm hoping for some suggestions as to how to cook wild turkey. I have beautiful looking breast filets and can't wait to cook them up. It's easy to find venison recipes. But, I'm finding it hard to find any recipes for wild turkey. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawdwaz Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) Only thing I'll ever do anymore is grind mine I've tried all kinds of methods and have finally settled on this. Here is a similar recipe to what I make............ (I just couldn't find mine on my hard drive) Turkey Tetrazzini Ingredients: 8 ounces thin spaghetti, broken into 3-inch lengths, cooked, rinsed, and drained 1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, divided 2 to 3 cups diced cooked turkey 2 tablespoons diced pimientos, if desired 1 tablespoon butter 4 ounces sliced mushrooms 1/4 chopped cup onion 1 can cream of mushroom soup 1/2 cup chicken broth 1/4 cup dry sherry salt and pepper, to taste Preparation: Combine spaghetti with 1 cup Cheddar cheese and half of the Parmesan cheese. Add turkey and pimientos. In a skillet, melt butter and sauté mushrooms and onions just until tender; add to the turkey mixture along with remaining ingredients. Gently stir to combine ingredients; place in a greased casserole and sprinkle with remaining cheeses. Cover with lid or foil and bake at 350° for about 45 minutes, or until hot and bubbly. Serves 6 to 8. Edited May 7, 2012 by Lawdwaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Nicky Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 (edited) Use any recipe you use for veal or chicken cutlets, just slice them a little thinner, and if you have a kitchen meat hammer, pound/tenderize them a little. Slighly chewier than store-bought turkey. Edited May 7, 2012 by Uncle Nicky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

virgil Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 How about jerky? Any try making it out of turkey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culvercreek hunt club Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I ate some that was made with domestic turkey. I didn't make it myself. it was ground and done with a jerkey shooter. It was good. I bet you don't get much though. Beef has to be like a 1/4 to 1/5 yeild on the jerky. If it is the same a breast of 5 pounds would yeild a pound or a little more?

Early Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 For a crowd-pleasing first course of a wild game dinner, try this: a) Brown a pound of ground wild turkey thigh meat (or use venison burger)...Add a packet of taco meat seasoning and cook as directed...add 1 1/2 teaspoon of liquid smoke as you cook Cut turkey breast cutlets 3/8" thick....then pound down to 1/8" +/- to tenderize c) Spread a generous helping of the smoke-flavored taco meat on each cutlet...add a generous helping of shredded taco cheese d) Roll up the cutlets around the filling...wrap with bacon, enclosing ends, too (Bacon should stick and secure the rolls without toothpicks) e) Bake in a 375 degree oven until the bacon is fairly crisp.....Serve hot out of the oven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
