Well, not really, But it will be here before we know it. I was looking for pictures of something else and came across these that I thought I'd lost of my first Turducken from a few years back.
If I recall, it was about a 12-14lb turkey, a 6lb duck and a 3-4lb chicken. Was REALLY intimidating boning all the birds, and getting it done in a timely fashion so as to keep everything out of the danger zone. I believe I used 2 kinds of stuffing, a traditional bread stuffing for the first later and a cornbread/sausage stuffing for the inner layer. This one was done in the oven, as I didn't have a smoker yet, but I'm thinking this year I need to smoke one. I've heard a lot of concerns about smoking turduckens due to the long ride at low temps. I'd suggest going hot and fast. This one took around six hours at 350˚ if I remember correctly, and as far as I know no one died. Though we haven't heard from uncle Fred in a few years....
