Product Description

We offer delicious award-winning free-range whole bronze turkeys that are packed with juicy meat and have a rich traditional flavour. Our turkeys are truly the best of the best, being free-range, hand-plucked, and game-hung for two weeks.

We select 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, and we do not blast them with water, so you might find a few more feather stubs than on commercial turkeys. However, this is completely normal. Please do not spend time pulling these out as most of them will burn off during cooking.

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

Cooking Instructions

  • Remove your turkey from fridge & place in a roasting pan at room temperature for as long as comfortable with. It saves cooking time and oven energy, preheat oven to 180°C / 160°C Fan / Gas 4.
  • Remove trussing band and season your bird liberally with salt inside & out. Insert Pop-Up Timer into the thickest part of the breast.
  • Place in oven at 180°C for approximately 20 minutes per kg.
  • To get the gravy going… Approx. 20–30 mins before end of cook add 600ml–1000ml (depending on size of roasting tray) to roasting pan. This lifts the gnarly bits, makes a tasty jus and helps clean the pan.
  • As soon as thickest part of turkey breast hits 68°C or the timer pops, take the turkey out of oven to rest. The oven is now free for roast potatoes!
  • Leave turkey to rest for up to 1 hour uncovered. Minimum 30 minutes. Your turkey will continue to cook with the residual heat but not overcook. Don’t cover if you want crispy skin! (Tom Copas doesn’t cover his turkey!).
  • Turkey tips: Keep it simple. No need to flip your bird. No need to baste a Copas turkey. No need to cover with foil.
  • Carving & Cooking

    Turkey

    Posted by BRUCE wales on 31st Dec 2022

    I decided to treat ourselves this year to a colas turkey , Although I have 4 ovens , I had decided on smoking the turkey on the BBQ smoker , but I wasn’t well , so I decided to Deep fry it instead as it would be quicker , Due to my oil temp being a bit low it took about 1 hour 15 mins , after which I let it test for an hour , The meat was not brined or injected , just as it came , I can say it was so moist , and the father in law commented on how much meat was on it , Absolutely fabulous , I made a gravy with the giblets , shame we can’t show you the pics

    Second year we’ve ordered and not disappointed. Loved everything about this - the way the turkey is reared, flavour, ease of cooking and wonderful gravy from juices. Highly recommend.

    Bronze turkey

    Posted by Alan Thornton on 31st Dec 2022

    Another amazing Copasturkey for Christmas. We have had these now for a number of years. First via our butcher who retired and closed. Then I had to search to find an alternative supplier. Finally I started ordering durect some years ago because I wouldn’t want to get a turkey from anywhere else.
