Since I've heard so much about turducken I decided to have one for this Christmas dinner.
I ordered one online and after thawing and cooking per instructions we had a nice dinner. We thought it was OK but I had a question about the overall taste of this product.
I'm not sure if I've ever encountered this flavor when cooking duck breasts...skillet frying gives nice crispy skin and delicious meat with only salt and pepper for seasoning. When I made my way through to the duck part of the turducken I detected a taste more like liver than the duck breast I was expecting.
Did I have unreal expectations or was this liver taste unusual in the experience of the rest of you who have eaten turducken? I mean, I wasn't wholly disappointed but I truly didn't expect the liver taste at all.
Let me know if I'm off base or if this particular product was.
Thanks for any input you can offer.
