How To Store

Please Note: If you plan to purchase a Three Bird Roast before December 18th, please remember to store it in the freezer until you’re ready to cook it. Properly freezing your Three Bird Roast will ensure it stays fresh and flavourful for your Festive celebrations.

Remove the Whole Turkey from its wrapping, making sure you keep hold of the exact weight of the bird (you’ll find this on the card label, please remove the giblets bag before cooking). Place the Turkey onto a wire rack and sit the rack on a plate. 

Pop the plate into the bottom of the fridge, making sure you have allowed space around the bird for the air to circulate. It is really important to make sure your bird stays cold and dry and must be kept refrigerated below 3°C.

Cooking Steps

1. Preparation:

   • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
   • Take the wild bird roast out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
   • Pat the roast dry with paper towels. This helps ensure crispy skin or a good browning on the surface.
   • Rub the bird with olive oil or butter to help retain moisture during cooking.
   • Season generously with salt, pepper, and herbs such as rosemary, thyme, or sage. You can also add minced garlic for extra flavour.

2. Optional Stuffing:

   • If desired, you can stuff the cavity with light aromatics such as apple slices, onions, and herbs. However, keep it light, as heavier stuffing may affect cooking time and moisture levels.

3. Roasting:

   • Place the wild bird roast on a roasting rack in a roasting pan to allow heat to circulate evenly and fat to drain away.
   • Roast for 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the thickness of the meat.
   • Basting: After the first 20 minutes, begin basting the roast with its own juices or additional melted butter. Baste every 15 minutes to keep the meat tender and flavourful.

4. Check Doneness:

   • Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the meat (away from bones). The internal temperature should reach 75°C (165°F) for the bird to be fully cooked.
   • If the roast begins to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with foil to prevent burning.
