How hard can it be to carve a turkey?
I found out one Sunday afternoon a few weeks ago when I was preparing for my Turkey Week series. I asked my husband to photograph me while I carved the turkey I had just roasted. There was some mild eye-rolling, but he is generally game to play with his Nikon.
I took the turkey and what I thought was a sharp knife to our sun room so we could capitalize on the natural light. And I started to carve.
So far so good…
But my knife began to fail me and I needed to twist.
…and pull…
…and tug…
And when it looked like this…we bagged the photo shoot…
I mean, really, how hard can it be to carve a turkey?
Apparently it’s not hard for Alton Brown. And I’m sure it won’t be hard for you either. Although, I would recommend a sharp knife. Check out his video on How to Carve a Turkey.
