The price of a Thanksgiving turkey is certainly not what it used to be.
According to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the price of what the government calls “other uncooked poultry including turkey” in the United States has gone up 23 percent from October 2020 — the last Thanksgiving season of President-elect Donald Trump’s first term — to October 2024, about four years into the Biden-Harris administration.
This coincides with the reality that most Americans, 67 percent, expect a turkey to be at their Thanksgiving table.
Americans may feel slightly less sticker shock when they buy ham, which has risen 18 percent since October 2020, per Consumer Price Index (CPI) data.
“67 percent”
I’m surprised it is not higher. We have always had turkey for Thanksgiving and prime rib for Christmas. I can see cutting back on that extra pie, one less jello salad, or even getting a smaller bird, but you gotta have turkey.
Related, I might have shared this before but I highly recommend spatchcocking that sucker, you will NEVER cook turkey a different way ever again.
This is how I’ve done it the last few years;

I’m thankful that my sister’s employer gives her a free turkey every Thanksgiving. It’s from the family turkey farm down the street in the little town she works in. They don’t feed them any toxic crap, which is nice!
Rich Taylor – Have done it that way without garlic . Am so happy that IOTW doesn’t have smell – o – vision ’cause your video made me hungry!!
Technically, a pan full of turkey necks and feet are still turkey. Enjoy.
Don’t fergit the lips…
The ones that fall from the helicopter are much more tender.

Me too because every time the iOTW staff posts about democrats, it would smell like ass, B.O., and crotch!
