Ingredients
- Turkey 1
- Duck 1
- Chicken 1
- Sausage stuffing 1 kg

- Cajun spice 2 tbsp
- Salt and pepper, a pinch
How to make it (one way)
- Debone all three birds from the back, keeping their shape (usually done by a butcher)
- Open the turkey flat, season with spice and spread with stuffing
- Layer the duck, more stuffing, then the chicken on top
- Wrap the turkey around everything and tie it back into shape
- Roast at 130-150°C for many hours until cooked through to the center
⚠️ The center cooks slowly, and undercooked poultry causes food poisoning. Always check the internal temperature.
