Dark meat with skin is THE only turkey I'll eat. No matter what you do with the white, it just is blah.. Does this make me anti-racist?

Is this a euphemism for something else?

Dark in meat and women

 

[Raider Nation]

Dark. Light is for suckers

I prefer the taste of white if it's juicy, but that's the main problem with white meat. If it's not cooked correctly, it's horrible.

 

[comfortably numb]

My meat?

 

[Tom Servo]

Mince meat?

 

[Raider Nation]

Dead meat

I like duck because its ALL dark meat.

Duck is 3x more expensive than chicken.

People eating white meat chicken are suckers with defective taste buds.

Dark meat. But crispy fried white meat in a chick fil A sandwich is great.

Same answer both ways...

Dark meat is for hillbillies and other people below the poverty line.

Who does that cross-eyed cat belong to? I want to buy him.

The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice.

Dark meat is better. White meat from a chicken breast is good because you get such a nice big chunk of meat. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?

 

[Hot Diggity Dog]

Decided to just eat the turkey leg from now on. Can't find anyone that can keep a turkey juicy.

Or it tastes better, you can do more with it and it's less expensive.

Assuming we're talking about chicken and turkey here . . .

Dark meat is for people who appreciate flavor. Dark meat contains more fat, and that's why it tastes so much better.

 

[Fennis]

chicken - either

turkey - white when cooked correctly

beef - dark

Deep fry it. You inject the bird with a nice mix of butter and spices. Freaking awesome - white and dark meat.

Deep frying is the only way to make a turkey breast edible.

My aunt does a pretty good job so the white doesn't taste as meh. She puts it out to thaw and once it's thawed enough, in a large ice chest she will put the butter and stuff on it and let it sit over night. Then she'll cook it like everyone else with the stuffing with rosemary twig inside it too. It may not be mouth watering juicy but hers is the best turkey white meat I've eaten, and I don't care for turkey in general. I'm not a big chicken breast fan either even though you can make this taste better than turkey. I like thighs and legs. Maybe it's becuz I'm a female and straight that I don't like breasts...

 

[Das Boot]

Never tried dark meat.

 

[Rick James]

the ONLY time I prefer white meat is when eating hot wings, and that's because by definition hot wings are white meat.

everything else- dark meat

 

[glumpy]

White meat or dark meat?

Yes

 

[ILUVBEER99]

Dark for sure.

Surprised to see the voting even, i'm one of the only ones who eats the dark at thanksgiving out of the 20 or so relatives there.

 

[RBM]

Juicy white is the best. Dark is too greasy tasting.

I cook the the Turkey and it is always juicy. Even the white meat. It's actually pretty easy to cook a turkey. Roasting bags work great.

Even with that I am more a dark meat guy. Although white meat is good for sandwiches.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I smoke my turkeys. I start with the breast side down for the first 2-3 hours, then I turn it right-side up. This prevents the fat from draining down out of the breast. Very tasty, very juicy.

White meat is for sandwiches and soups. Dark meat is for eatin'.

What do you do with sandwiches and soups? Throw them away?

That's why I love duck. No need to choose.

Choices should be "cardboard or dark meat?"

White meat is for sandwiches and soups. Dark meat is for eatin'.

Dark meat makes better soup. More fat, more flavor in the broth.

 

[tom22406]

I tried Tony Chachere's Butter and Jalepeno Injectable marinade on the turkey we cooked and it came out delicious.White meat was tender,juicy and full of flavor and the dark as well.

Based on that I went option 3.

Dark meat is superior in every way, we just use the white stuff where the difference isn't as large. Plus, I use the carcass for broth.

Red.

I like these suggestions. I may have to drop some recipes to my turkey preparers. MIL did a pork roast on Christmas eve. Not a good experience either. I'm going to try a prime rib for new years day , and see if I can cook something that will be a good alternative for next year. Maybe smoke a turkey see how that goes. I have to do something to make sure these turkeys don't die in vain.

For a couple years, I did a leg of lamb for Christmas dinner. That is hard to beat for deliciousness and ease of preparation.

If you can put gravey on it, white meat is awesome.

ETA: white pork is superior to white poultry.

Does anyone know of a way to get pheasant other than hunting? Going to Edwards meats today in Denver here for ideas. Maybe they have some.
