Getting Started
Don’t worry if, upon its arrival, your turkey or ham has thawed a bit on the outside & is a little warm to the touch. Before we ship it to you we’d keep it –10 degrees and we wrap him up reals good so it will still be cold deep inside. All our products are fully cooked, and you can keep them fresh in da ice box for another two weeks or because of the nice packaging job Boudreaux and his friends done did … yous can re-freeze it for another six months. If yous still gots some questions give us a holler at 800-809-7881. We talk at-cha.
De best thing about our turkeys & ham is theys already fully cooked so ya’ll can eat them hot or cold. However, da Geaux Juice flows through the turkey meat a lot better if it’s warmed. For the best results let your turkey completely thaw in the icebox. Then you can serves it chilly .. or for better results …… goes to da next section for da heat’n instructions.
Warming Instructions
First, remove the plastic bag, ( if there is any juice in the bag pour it in the pan you plan to heat the turkey or ham in, this makes good gravy later ) next leave the turkey or ham in the foil it’s wrapped in. This will help hold all dem juices inside .. mmmmm… dats good!!! Then slide the pan in your pre-heated oven at 325 degrees for about one hour, the turkey breast & 1û2 honey glazed ham for about 30-40 minutes. The cooking time will be determined by how cold dem birds & hams was when they goes in da oven … REMEMBER EVERYTHING IS COOKED … YOU ONLY WANTS TO WARM THEM .. OVER COOK’EN DEM WILL DRY DEM OUT… If you got a bottle of our World Famous Geaux Juice … after yous slice your turkey please pours a bit of this magic sauce on each serving … Aiee dats good!! If yous got some left over use it for grill’n chicken, fish, or shrimp. … it’s make Dem Geaux Too!!!
Alls the turkeys & turkey breasts are injected wit da Geaux Juice soos when you cut da meat yous gonna sees all da spices & juices. So some dem parts gonna be spicier than others … Hoo – ya – yeeee!!!
