We pick ours up from the co-op direct from the farmer, and are suppose to get a 24-30 pound so not sure till I pick up. I always get the biggest, then make broth, soup, subs, turkey enchiladas, turkey pot pie and anything else that I can with what is left.

I usually get a 20# turkey and then a 5 # breast roast to give us more white meat.

This year most of what I got was 13 lbs. that way I know it will fit in the rotisserie. It will feed 4 for dinner plus sandwiches, plus soup, plus stock.

My son and his friends helped me get some things out of the car, and as they were walking out the door (my son last) I said, there are 2 cases of water in the back and a turkey in the front, and look, one just came out the door.. His friends found it funny, but he didn't.. Originally Posted by Palooka

ummm.... about 2 pounds (yes, two)
It's the 3 of us this year so I bought each of us a cornish game hen. (Diva's idea, she said we could feel like giants with our own tiny turkeys)
I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!
