Several times, I've done something of a combination of these two:
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/b...recipe-1922607
https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/f...-turkey-233118
I like the herb butter under the skin; the frequent basting with the chicken broth and roasting with the veggies in the cavity. Keeps it nice and moist. Facilitates hanging out and drinking in the kitchen. Its pretty easy but a bit high maintenance.
Now that I've said something, I'll probably fuck it up this year.If we're gonna wear uniforms, we should all wear somethin' different!

apparently there is no reason to worry about what you're going to cook - just call the Colonel and relax. Who knew T-day could be so easy?

How about "heirloom" turkeys. It seems like a marketing term and an equivalent to the heritage birds. But maybe not?

Interestingly, the heirloom is priced the same as the heritage

Both are strictly a gimmick. I'm not aware of any certification but I'm sure some one is running the scam.
Why would anyone want a turkey that is tough as fuck and takes three times the resources to grow?
Crazy I bet most of the people who get this shit are Mother Nature living green types who are concerned with global warming. Idiots are eating a turkey with a much bigger footprint.

I studied this to death looking for a fact based advertising scheme for our small farm that sells mostly locally. I'd really love to be wrong about this.
Sadly the extra feed due to the poor feed conversation ratio in both of these types of production dwarf any savings you may get from them being local.
Good example is that imported rice from Asia or India has a much greener footprint than rice from Cali that relies on much more intensive production.
Its also a fact the greatest footprint having to do with "food miles" is us driving it home after we bought it.

All fine and good, but what if you really didn't give a shit about food miles or footprint and just wanted the best tasting bird?

Beef or pork
Nothing at all wrong with that.
I've never done a side-by-side but I'm happy with the heritage birds I get.

Couple of years ago I bought a local, organic turkey from a nearby farm. It was hella expensive ($80 for 14 pounds or something like that), but I felt good about supporting the local food scene. I also bought a "natural" turkey at the regular supermarket (a step up from Butterball but not organic - cost $25 for the same size) and decided to do a taste test. Brined and roasted them both the same way, same recipe and everything (spatchcocked in the oven, rubbed with butter and herbs and such). Everyone universally preferred the supermarket turkey - it was more tender and the local turkey was a bit gamy and kind of stringy. Probably partially just because of what we're used to eating, but it was interesting to have some data. I still like supporting the local farms, just not by buying turkeys from them (their red meat, on the other hand, is the bomb).
