Can anybody recommend a place that ships turduckens? Since it's just for my wife and me, I'd like avoid paying a small fortune! I'm going to check out a couple local cajun places, but figure y'all may have some better recommendations. Thanks!
http://www.hebertsmeats.com/ Ships, will not be cheap. http://www.louisianagifts.net/louisiana-gifts-527.html $110 I have found this in the local Super Walmart for less than $20.00 They stopped carrying it in Lubbock a couple of months ago, but maybe in Houston, or some other grocery store you can find it. Here is a contact page, they might be able to tell you who carrys their products in Houston. http://www.tonychachere.com/contact/
I think my sister found one at a cajun store in the Woodlands, I wanna say she told me it was around $50. I can try and find out the name of the store if you want me to
Thanks for the recommendations! I ended up ordering from cajuncreations.com. I got a turducken roll (like a small turducken) for $30, some cornbread stuffing for $10, and assorted boudin and stuffed chicken (to make the shipping more reasonable on a per-item basis.) I'll let you know how it is!!
I know you already ordered but for anyone else looking this place in Lafayette looks like the real deal. They also have the turducken roll for $31. http://www.cajungrocer.com/fresh-foods-holiday-dishes-turducken-c-1_15_24.html
Turns out the Turducken that I ordered is from Cajun Grocer. I guess cajuncreations.com is a reseller. I'll keep you posted on how it turns out.
The turducken roll was OK. Nothing to write home about, for sure. The turkey was fine, but the chicken and duck was a bit piecemeal, in my opinion. Their cornbread dressing, however, was terrible. Too sweet, too bland :shock: and overly dry. Blech.
Turduckens are overrated, and overpriced. I've had a few from various different places, but I haven't had one that makes me say wow. I think people are more fascinated with the concept than the actual taste of it. Give me a fried turkey anyday. Heck, you can even fry the duck and chicken. That makes me think ... can you fry the turducken? That would make it taste better!:grin:
