For those who want something a little smaller we have our bronze crowns, a whole turkey but with legs & dark meat removed. The same delicious award-winning free range whole bronze turkey with plenty of juicy meat and a rich traditional flavour. Our turkeys truly are the cream of the coop, free range, hand plucked and game hung for two weeks.

We choose bronze breed turkeys for their award-winning flavour and texture, but this does mean that sometimes their feather stubs are visible. Our birds are dry plucked by hand, we don’t blast them with water, so you might find a few more feather stubs than on commercial turkeys, but this is normal. Please do not spend time pulling these out as most will burn off during cooking, and those that don’t are much easier to remove once the bird comes out of the oven.

Each bird comes boxed with giblets, recipe leaflet & handy pop-up timer.

Full of flavour and easy to carve, each crown arrives boxed with giblets, recipe leaflet & pop-up timer.

Small (2.5-3.49kg): Feeds 6-9 people
Medium (3.5-4.49kg): Feeds 9-12 people.
Large (4.5-5.49kg): Feeds 12-15 people.
Extra Large (5.5kg+): Feeds 15-18 people.

Turkey crown

Posted by Jon F on 2nd Jan 2023

Ordered a small turkey crown during the summer as we were meant to be four and then moved to seven in early December. Considered moving to a medium but it was fine for seven with leftovers for Boxing Day and then a turkey pithivier. Tasted excellent and cooked well, with the accompanying pop up timer helping and the good instructions. Also had the very good turkey gravy. Will buy again.

Large Turkey crown

Posted by Susan Barlow on 2nd Jan 2023

It was delicious. Only comment would be that it feeds probably max 10 people not 12-14.

Free range bronze turkey crown

Posted by Claire White on 2nd Jan 2023

As ever the bird was very tasty but seemed smaller than in previous years. We thought that is was very expensive and would think twice about buying one in 2023. Appreciate that dealing with avian flu and all the consequences that go with that cannot have been easy or cheap.

Crown

Posted by Andy Hedge on 2nd Jan 2023

Just the two of us this year, so opted for a turkey crown. Quicker and easier to cook, but absolutely no flavour. Very little aroma as it was roasting and possibly the blandest turkey we’ve ever eaten. Disappointing.

Amazing

Posted by Damian O’Grady on 1st Jan 2023

Our first Copas Turkey … and just THE best Turkey I have ever eaten and cooked. I would travel 50 miles for this turkey, just brilliant…I cooked in a roasting bag with a lattice of streaky bacon….it was even succulent the next day…. Bravo … will be ordering next year

Excellent Quality

Posted by Camilla on 1st Jan 2023

Delicious turkey. Dry brined it the day before with some herbs and cooked as per instructions. The best turkey I have cooked. Slightly on the small side (ordered medium) and it was just below the threshold so should really have been charged for a small but the portions were still generous and given the difficulties turkey farmers have faced this year I wasn't going to make a fuss. Will definitely order the crown again. Failproof for an inexperienced turkey cooker!

Quality Christmas

Posted by Michael James & Ann Innes on 1st Jan 2023

A perfect turkey crown , succulent, extremely tasty - cannot recommend highly enough - particularly in view of bird flu restrictions and the additional husbandry of the turkeys needed. Well done Copas Traditional Turkeys.

1. Insert the pop-up cooking timer into the breast of the crown.
2. Remove our traceability wing label and place your crown in a roasting tin.
3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper then cover with foil.
4. Cook at the starting temperature (220ºC / 200ºFan / 430ºF / Gas Mark 7) for 30 minutes then reduce the oven to the roasting temperature (180ºC / 160ºFan / 350ºF / Gas Mark 4) for the remainder of the cooking time.
5. Remove the foil approximately 30 minutes before the end to allow the skin to brown.
6. Remove the crown from the oven once the Pop-Up Timer pops, or your meat thermometer reads 68 degrees,
7. Cover with foil & allow to rest for up to an hour.
