Poultry

Whole Wing

Whole wing of Turkey keeps drumette, flat, and tip joined—for roasting or party platters. Joint before serving if guests prefer pieces. As a whole wing section of wing, portion for even cooking and clear labelling. Cook turkey whole wing to temperature when thickness varies, rest before carving, and add fat or sauce if lean. Roasting, smoking, deli slicing, and mince show the cut’s strengths. Match heat to collagen—fast sear for tender muscle, long moist heat for hard-working joints.
