HOW DO YOU LIKE YOURS?

If the temperature of the meat after standing for 30 mins is:

58°C – It’s Pink
60°C – It’s Perfect
70°C – It’s Overcooked

Because of our dry artisan process, our product is very safe from food poisoning bugs, so the meat does not need to reach the same high temperatures as standard turkey. All ovens vary so use and trust your thermometer from half way through cooking

How to cook with a Thermometer

A KellyBronze will cook quicker because of the intramuscular fat that is not present in a standard bird. Remove the meat from the oven as soon as the needle hits 60°C and leave to stand for at least 30 mins

Free-range KellyBronze turkeys are “the Rolls-Royce of turkey”, says The Times. Each bird is grown to full maturity, wild in woodlands through three seasons until dry plucked and hung and prepared for easy delivery or pick-up from our farms.

The Daily Telegraph proclaims the KellyBronze turkeys to be “The Sought-after turkey” for Christmas, or indeed any meal where excellence and flavour come top of the list. Non organic, home grown and natural, woodland reared KellyBronze are sought after the world over.

The Financial Times says the KellyBronze has “superior quality” which comes down to the care put into each KellyBronze bird. Naturally bred, free-roaming, dry-aged and home-grown, each bird is a winner. A true feast for any special celebration.
