DH and DS like the darker meat and I like to make lots of stock afterwards, so a smaller turkey would be our choice.

Such a nice name for it. In the US it's just called a turkey breast. My family prefers the white meat so it usually is what we have.

Has anyone cooked one of these for Christmas instead of a whole turkey . we shall be five adults on Christmas Day , and like to have cold turkey on Boxing Day . Would there be enough meat on a crown ( I suppose it depends how big it is silly me) ,but I get fed up with having the whole bird hanging around , and feeling guilty about not using it all. It would have to be free range and preferably organic.
