For me it's the white meat. My husband loves the neck, wings, legs and even the pope's nose (the turkey butt) I never cared for dark meat. My mom loves the neck and white meat and the crispy turkey skin.

Most definitely the breast meat but I'll take the wings in a pinch.

We like the white breast meat of the turkey. Although the legs are suppose to be the healthiest part,due to constant running around of the turkeys.I find the dark meat is not as tender either.

Definitely the white meat. I don't like a lot of it though. I usually get just one small chunk with a tablespoon of gravy (two tablespoons if someone makes mushroom gravy, yummm) and load up on vegetables for the holiday. I don't usually take a lot of the mashed potatoes either. I prefer mine chunked with the skin on and roasted with herbs.

The "oysters" - I carve the turkey each year so I flip the bird over after carving and pull-out the "oysters." I eat one and anyone who is keeping me company while I carve the bird gets the other one.

The French call this part of fowl "sot-l’y-laisse" - roughly translating to "the part only a fool leaves behind."

Seek-out these gems the next time you roast a chicken or a turkey .

What part of Turkey do you like the best?

The Mediterranean coastal parts.

Istanbul. Or anywhere up on the Black Sea.



Oh, you mean THE turkey!
Dark meat - thigh, drumsticks, wings.
