Heritage Turkey. Wattled-fowl equivalent of HEIRLOOM produce, denoting old-line indigenous breeds of turkeys that have approached extinction during the tyrannical, Butterball-fueled reign of the big-breasted hybrid freak known in the poultry industry as the Large White. Propelled by such organizations as SLOW FOOD, heritage turkeys, with such J. Crew-catalog names as Bourbon Red, Standard Bronze, Narragansett, and Jersey Buff, have been reintroduced in limited quantities to the market. The heritage turkey we prepared for Thanksgiving was so dark-meated and intensely flavorful that Gramma wept as she said, “This! This is what turkeys tasted like in my girlhood in Vermont!”
