The Howerter Family Homepage

Last week John killed his first turkey out at the farm.  He was so excited!  He called and told me the entire killing story.  He really enjoys telling people, so if you get a chance, ask him about it.  On Sunday, we fried the turkey at  our house.  I had decided that I was not even going to try it.  I don’t usually like things in the fryer, so I did not see any need to try a wild turkey for goodness sake.  Ryan, Sara, Elijah, Josiah, Lily, Jay, Katherine, Don, Wendy, Lauren and Chad were all there, and they all tried the turkey.  They kept ranting that it tasted just like “real” turkey, so I decided to try it.  It really did taste  good.  It had no gamey taste at all, which is what I was worried about.  I was truly surprised.  Another wildlife story from the Howerter’s.
