Have ya'll heard of this? It originated in southern Louisiana, but I think it became a more national concept several years ago. I think it's just the funniest thing so I wanted to share it with those of you who may not have heard of it. Turducken is a huge holiday dish in Louisiana instead of turkey or ham. The butchers take a de-boned chicken and place that inside of a de-boned duck and place that inside a de-boned turkey. In between each bird there is a layer of stuffing and then the whole thing is rolled tight and tied together. It is a really beautiful dish when you slice it because of it's many different layers, but the idea (and the name) just crack me up.

It is a lot of work and they are quite expensive, on average of about $50, I think.
Sarahbean, you're right, duck can be very greasy if not prepared right. That said, I have never heard anyone complain about turducken being greasy. I'm not sure why, but evidently it is prepared in such a way that the duck grease doesn't take over the whole dish.

I saw this on the food network or something...it was with Andrew Zimmerman I think and wherever he got his...in LA you could order it from the company and that would ship it to you. All you had to do was heat it up because I remember them saying their orders skyrocketed at the holidays. Not sure if this is the same place but here's a link Stuffed Turducken $85 Delivered | Buy Now! | Fresh from CajunGrocer
