    Here's the Free Range Turducken

    Turducken is a freewheeling monstrosity that requires a sauce that is awesome enough to stand up to the beastly flavour of a full throttle bird.

     

    Rev it up with cranberries for  the turkey, fire your pistons with orange for the duck and put the pedal to the metal with thyme for the chicken. 

    Head off road with this awesome sauce that can handle a free ranged turducken. 

    All terrain cranberry sauce for turduckens

    3 cups fresh or frozen whole cranberries

    1 cup of marmalade

    1 cup of water

    big  pinch of salt

    1 shallot, finely minced

    4 sprigs of fresh thyme

     

    Get a medium pot on the stove over medium heat. Pile in all your ingredients and bring the whole mess to a boil. Don't worry about the thyme twigs, those are easy to pluck out later.

     Stir it all about to break up the bits of marmalade. 

    Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook it out nice and slow so the cranberries start popping and the sauce thickens and reduces for 30-45 minutes. Serve it up nice and hot or let it cool to room temperature before you serve it with the 'bird'.

    This stuff keeps for ages in the fridge, so it'll last as long as your leftover bird bits last.

    Here's the shirt that goes with the sauce that goes with the bird.
