Mary’s Air-Chilled Heritage Fresh Turkey: Elevate Your Feast

These turkeys represent the best of American heritage breeds—naturally bred, free to run, fly, and forage. Their active lifestyle leads to larger thighs and slightly smaller breasts, giving Mary’s Heritage turkeys a richer, deeper flavor than your typical bird. What sets these turkeys apart is the air-chilling process, a method that locks in natural juices and flavor without the need for added water. Unlike water-chilled turkeys, air-chilling enhances the texture and taste, resulting in a turkey that’s truly exceptional. Perfect for those looking to bring something extraordinary to their Thanksgiving table.
