Just in time for the winter season comes a recipe that is sure to bring bacon lovers some warm holiday cheer. Turbaconducken. That’s right — a chicken stuffed in duck stuffed in a turkey, all wrapped in bacon. Otherwise known as a bacon-wrapped turducken. Just how did we create this meaty madness? Read on.
It all started with a dream…and a whole bunch of bacon. Five pounds of bacon to be exact. For some variety we used three types of bacon, including Rocco’s Country Peppered Bacon for the decorative topping.
We used a 15 pound turkey, a small duck, and a pre-cut whole chicken. We consulted the internet for a turducken recipe and hoped for the best.
We started by wrapping the chicken pieces in bacon.
Then we split the duck into two halves…
…and wrapped the duck halves in bacon.
At this point the chicken and duck started looking pretty big, so we test fit the pieces into the turkey. There wasn’t any room to spare but we managed to get all the pieces in there.
Then we wrapped the turkey in bacon and the feast was ready for the oven.
We cooked the birds in a roaster oven on low heat. Cooking took all day but the results were worth the wait.
The cooked concoction looked mouth-wateringly good after pulling it out of the oven.
Some of the bacon shifted during cooking, but overall the bacon held together quite well after an entire day in the oven.
The final product was moist and absolutely delicious. We used no seasoning whatsoever. The bacon gave the poultry just the right hint of salty goodness. The perfect holiday meal for bacon lovers everywhere!

I bet the Meat was extra moist from the Bacon wrapping. Te west coast of Florida has a meat store that specializes in Turducken. It is becoming more popular.

it looks rough to start off but the final steps look good
that looks utterly disgusting. Like a heart attack waiting to happen. GO VEGAN!!!
To which of the four slaughtered animals are you referring to as being the cause for this imaginary heart attack? I still can’t pronounce this dish, but it looks delish. Vegan, GO!
So you come on this site to be rude and bratty? Wow, says so much for ‘vegan’ character. Maybe I can go over to your house for dinner and make gaggy noises over the tempeh and tofu that smells like azz.
My dinner poops on your dinner.
Vegetables are what food eats. . . .
[...] Obviously, this is in honor of the holiday devoted to three of the seven deadly sins: gluttony, sloth and Dallas Cowboys football. And that brings us to Turbaconducken. A pleasing mash-up of delicious fowl and piggies from Disney movies or uniquely American abomination? [...]
“Vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter-faction, the vegans, are a persistent irritant to any chef worth a damn.
Vegetarians are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit, an affront to all I stand for, the pure enjoyment of food. The body, these waterheads imagine, is a temple that should not be polluted by animal protein. It’s healthier, they insist, though every vegetarian waiter I’ve worked with is brought down by any rumor of a cold. Oh, I’ll accomodate them, I’ll rummage around for something to feed them, for a ‘vegetarian plate’, if called on to do so. Fourteen dollars for a few slices of grilled eggplant and zucchini suits my food cost fine.”

I am not a vegan/vegetarian/or whatever, but I don’t condemn those who have chosen that lifestyle. Just because we have differences, doesn’t make one or the other choice wrong in this case. We just chose to get our protein in different ways. As for the bacon? I think I’d have to pass, but I would love to try some of the meat itself because bacon does give a good flavor. Besides, I have to watch my fat/salt intake. lol
It looks, interesting. I’m afraid to ask how many calories per serving there is. Perhaps over any normal caloric intake for anyone, even a marathon runner. LoLz
Our 17 year old has put this on our menu for this weekend but he is calling it a Turducksant and we will be using a turkey, duck and pheasant that he personally hunted. Now we will add some bacon!!

I am not a vegetarian by any means but that may turn me into one. Come on people! Wake up and change your eating habits. That looks disgusting!
Here’s a better idea, Leslie: put a gun in your mouth and paint the ceiling with whatever substitute for brains you’ve been using to keep the wind from making your skull whistle like an empty jug.
That’s a teeny bit harsh don’t you think? People are actually allowed to disagree over what tastes good and what doesn’t you know.
Would you reply in the same hostile manner to a Jewish or Muslim commenter expressing a distaste for this recipe? Does *everyone* who doesn’t like the idea of turkey, duck, chicken and bacon all together deserve a gun shot their mouth?
–S
Leslie, I’ve had tofurky for many years with my vegetarian relatives and kept my mouth shut because my mother raised me right.
Obviously, your mother was too drunk while screwing homeless crack heads to instill proper manners in you.
Would your mother approve of the comment about drunken sex with homeless crack heads?
Is that what’s regarded as ‘proper manners’ in your family?
Based on some of the replies I’ve seen here and on other pages on this website, bacon makes people really *rude.*
Perhaps it’s not such a bad idea to try eating a little less of it to see if your tempers improve…
–S
That looks awesome! I bet it tastes even better. Fantastic foodie idea and hey, I dont eat bacon too often and this by no means is going to be a cause for heart attack. Gas maybe…

I’m not even vegetarian/vegan and I still find that disgusting. It looks like a mess. YUCK!!
The only way this recipe could be improved is the strategic placement of fried eggs.
I’m having a dual reaction to this. First is OMG, Yum. Second is… Really? Does anyone need quite that much fat and protein? The first response is going to win. I mean if the people cannot be smart enough to get a small serving of this monstrosity it’s their own fault.
Though I think I’ll be subbing 1 lb of pancetta for 4 lbs of bacon… so 1 lb of bacon, 1 lb of pancetta. That should give me all the yummy goodness and wonderful flavor but not kill me in the process.
If you ate that everyday, like 3 lbs of it, you might have a problem. hahahaha. But what is wrong with an extravagant holiday feast? I love vegetarian food too. It goes great with MEAT.

excellent put up, very informative. I wonder why the opposite specialists of this sector don’t notice this. You should proceed your writing. I am sure, you’ve a huge readers’ base already!
While all the “bacon freaks” may go WOW!, I do not believe this would turn out as one would assume. The bacon on the inside would render its fat without the water evaporating. The inside meat would be quite unpalitable. The outside may look browned an crispy, but having the skin underneath also just oozeing the water out would make that bacon also quite unlike real, cast iron pan cooked bacon.
Also, the next best thing to eating bacon, is peeling the skin off of a roasted chicken or turkey and eating it.
I owned and cooked in a restaurant for years, and a fried chicken skin sandwich was a very hot item.

This is like the dream that you have but you don’t remember anything about it the next morning, until the day that you see something and suddenly you remember your entire dream again. It’s like a déjà vus, like something you once knew and have long forgotten, this is what happened with me and your Turducken. For some reason, I feel strangely attracted to this new – yet unknown – item in the food chain. Just have to figure out how all of that would fit into my small oven. My brain shouts NOOOOOOOOOOO don’t eat it, think of your cholesterol and calories and BECOME VEGAN, my heart says: F…. you brain ? Rock on guys… continue the fantastic work
NIGGERS!

People are less likely to give to charity or to help someone out shortly after eating a vegan meal.
It gives them a false sense of moral superiority that they use to justify not doing anything else.

If you build it … they will come … and buy it!
This has intrigued me for a long time, this item. My questions to those of you who have had success with it, even in its basic form without the bacon….how does one carve this up? All the bones of the duck and chicken are still intact, does one carve up the turkey, then remove the duck…tell me how this turns out please!
The bones of all the birds are removed. It is boneless. You cut right through it to serve in slices. I have made them from scratch (will not be doing that again unless I have to!) and purchased them from stores here in Louisiana. They are wonderful! Never did the bacon version yet!
