So, I ate Turducken for the first time, ordered it online and had it shipped in for Thanksgiving. The bird combination itself was amazing, the duck fat makes the chicken and turkey really moist and tender, just melts in your mouth.
However, and I think this was an issue with ordering online rather than either making it myself or finding a butcher somewhere who would be willing to make one to order:
The stuffing was god awful. And I mean awful. The turducken I ordered advertised "italian sausage stuffing." Well, what that actually means is that they take low grade sausage seasoning and pork fat, and blend it together with a texture-less corn meal paste (I refuse to call that abomination "corn bread stuffing"). Wet cat food would have more definition than this stuff. The only thing I could get out of it taste-wise was a vague sense of spicy that I can only assume was the italian sausage seasoning. I would take a bite of hot ducken, it would taste great, and then the next bite would taste like nothing but barely spicy grey goo. Very unappetizing. A family member pointed out that adding gravy compensated for the bad stuffing, but I don't see the point in paying a shit-ton for a turducken just to use it as a vehicle for gravy.
I'd give the overall meal a B at best. The 3-bird roast was genuinely delicious but almost ruined for me by the terrible stuffing that was omnipresent throughout the bird. I had really high hopes for it, so to have it end up worse than the steak I'd cooked the night before really just took the wind out of my sails tbh.
EXPERIMENT: FAILED
besides most paper rolls are at least 2 inches in diameter unless you got scammed and got the shittiest type of toilet paper.
