Win a Free Organic D'Artagnan Turkey Here!

Do you know where you're getting your turkey this year? Not yet? Then we've got a contest for you. The good folks at D'Artagnan are providing us with a turkey a day to give away to one lucky Serious Eats reader from today until Sunday, November 23.*

20081114-dartagnan.jpgD'Artagnan is a purveyor of many things delicious—from pâtés to sausages, foie gras to wild mushrooms, game meat to truffles. But what we're especially interested in right now is their turkey.

D'Artagnan's certified organic birds are fed organic grains and pure spring water—no protein supplements, added poultry or fish byproducts, pesticides, or herbicides. Additionally no antibiotics, no growth hormones. The result is a poultry with great flavor, tenderness, and a 25 percent lower fat content than standard commercially raised turkey.

We will be giving away 12- to 14-pound organic free-range birds for the duration of the contest. Contest is open only to participants in the continental U.S. Details after the jump.

Win a Turkey

To enter to win, just go to Serious Eats Thanksgiving headquarters, peruse all the cool ideas, and then leave a comment on this post telling us which of our Turkey Day menu suggestions sounds the yummiest.

One (1) winner will be chosen at random among the commenters. Feel free to enter every day, but you may win only once during the lifetime of the contest. Comments for this entry will be open until 3 p.m. ET tomorrow (November 22). The standard Serious Eats contest rules apply.

* Sorry, but we have to limit shipping to the continental U.S. Birds will be shipped from D'Artagnan no later than Monday, November 24.

Pioneer Woman's Sweet Potatoes. Yum!

Hi There. What a great idea giving away this turkey. It gives the readers a chance to directly compare a "boutique" turkey with their traditional store-bought turkey, and not have to pay the boutique prices for the experience. You should encourage the winners to post their thoughts about these turkeys.

As far as my answer for my favorite recipe in your thanksgiving section, I think the Corniest Corn Muffins from Baking With Dorie sound scrumptious!

Thank you so much for this giveaway. I love the sound of the Dorie's All-In-One Holiday Cake. In fact, I'll be making this for Thanksgiving. We get so tired of pies, that a cake is a nice addition. Thanks again.

Pumpkin creme brulee here too.

I love stuffing, which is why I'm going to try to incorporate it into meals more often than just thanksgiving. I def want to try 'Bon Appétit' version the "cornbread stuffing muffins with ham and sage". Sounds like a meal in itself.

I still want to try the brussels sprouts with bacon - maybe that's how I can convince my extended family that bacon isn't a bad thing.

ps - thank you for reminding readers about this contest daily!
