Our Millcroft Farm free-range Bronze turkeys are a premium choice for those who value exceptional quality and flavour. Raised with care on the rolling pastures of Millcroft Farm, these turkeys are free to roam, ensuring a natural, stress-free environment that results in superior taste and texture.
The Bronze turkey is renowned for its rich, traditional flavour and succulent meat, making it the ideal centrepiece for festive celebrations. Its slower growth and natural rearing process produce tender, juicy meat with a depth of flavour that sets it apart from standard turkeys. The beautifully marbled meat ensures every bite is moist and satisfying, while the crispy, golden skin adds the perfect finishing touch.
For the best results, roast with herbs, butter, and a hint of seasoning to enhance its natural taste. Pair with all the traditional trimmings—roast potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and gravy—for a classic Christmas dinner. For a modern twist, try serving with spiced root vegetables or a rich red wine jus.
Whether you’re hosting a large family gathering or an intimate festive meal, our Millcroft Farm free-range Bronze turkeys guarantee a dining experience that’s as memorable as it is delicious. Celebrate the season with the finest in free-range poultry, sourced with care and crafted for indulgence.

Cooking a whole turkey is a classic choice for festive occasions, and getting it right ensures a moist, flavorful centerpiece for your meal. Here’s a guide to cooking methods and timings based on the size of your bird.
For a whole, unstuffed turkey, cook it for 40 minutes per kilogram plus an additional 20 minutes. If the turkey is stuffed, add 5-10 minutes per kilogram.
Weight | Cooking Time (Unstuffed) | Cooking Time (Stuffed) |
---|---|---|
2 kg | 1 hour 40 minutes | 1 hour 50-55 minutes |
3 kg | 2 hours | 2 hours 10-15 minutes |
4 kg | 2 hours 40 minutes | 2 hours 55-3 hours |
5 kg | 3 hours 20 minutes | 3 hours 35-40 minutes |
6 kg | 4 hours | 4 hours 15-20 minutes |
7 kg | 4 hours 40 minutes | 4 hours 55-5 hours |
Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and rest it for 30-40 minutes, loosely covered with foil. Resting allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring the meat is moist and flavorful.
Enjoy your beautifully roasted turkey—it’s the ultimate showstopper!
