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

    Christmas Turkey

    Posted by Jennifer Cope on 4th Jan 2025

    Our turkey this year was the best we have ever eaten - all my family concluded! We followed the cooking instructions to the letter - ditto carving instructions and it was perfect! We thoroughly enjoyed it - highlight of the meal (and made a great turkey curry, not to mention the sandwiches). Thank you!

    Superb Turkey

    Posted by Amanda Griffiths on 3rd Jan 2025

    Really, after 30-odd years of purchasing turkeys from the best that I could find - high welfare, great diet, longer-lived, hand-plucked etc..., we have settled on Copas. They are the simply the best. We lived for a while close to the farm which is how we discovered this lovely, family-run business and their wonderful birds. For a couple of years we joined the happy throng to collect it in person, on a friendly, carnival-like day, full of Christmas cheer (and a reindeer!) which we all loved and now we order it to Wiltshire. The best reference I can give (apart from the superb quality and beautiful, well-matured flavour) is that families are welcome to visit the farm and see exactly how the turkeys live and and how well they are looked after. More, I cannot say. If a farm is prepared to be this open so that people can better understand and appreciate both farming and these magnificent creatures, then you can be sure that they are well nurtured and have lovely lives. The end product reflects this, apart from it being absolutely fantastic in terms of animal welfare. Worth every hard-earned penny and more, I promise you. Bravo!

    My family won't eat any other turkey than Copas birds, absolutely superb. Don't waste the carcass as it makes delicious soup.
