Turkey Back Delivered to Your Door

Turkey Back Near Me

Turkey backs are a flavorful, meaty cut perfect for making stock, soups, and slow-cooked dishes. Known for their rich taste and natural collagen, turkey backs bring depth and body to broths while providing tender, juicy meat that can be shredded into recipes. Whether you’re simmering a hearty soup or creating a homemade turkey stock for holiday meals, turkey backs are a budget-friendly, flavor-packed option.

With their combination of meat, bones, and connective tissue, turkey backs are ideal for slow cooking. They release a natural richness that enhances gravies, stews, and casseroles. Once cooked, the meat can be pulled off the bone for tacos, sandwiches, or other creative dishes, making them a versatile kitchen staple.

Fun Facts About Turkey Backs:

  • Turkey backs are prized for making rich, flavorful stock thanks to their high collagen content.

  • The meat from turkey backs is tender and ideal for soups, stews, and casseroles.

  • Using turkey backs is an economical way to stretch your meal while still getting high-quality meat.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Protein: Turkey backs provide a hearty source of protein to support muscle repair and everyday energy.

  • Collagen & Minerals: The bones and connective tissue release collagen, calcium, and other minerals into your broth, supporting joint and bone health.

  • Lower Fat Option: Turkey backs are leaner compared to many red meats, making them a good choice for balanced meals.

Cooking Tips:

  • Make Stock or Broth: Simmer turkey backs with aromatics like onion, garlic, celery, and herbs for 3–4 hours to create a rich homemade stock.

  • Slow Cooker Magic: Place turkey backs in a slow cooker with water, vegetables, and seasonings to develop deep flavor without much effort.

  • Shred the Meat: After cooking, remove the meat from the bones and use it in soups, casseroles, or sandwiches.

  • Roast for Extra Flavor: Roast turkey backs in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes before simmering to give your stock a deeper, roasted flavor.

With ChopLocal, enjoy the convenience of skipping the grocery store and getting premium, farm-fresh turkey delivered directly to your doorstep.

I've ordered from Over the Moon several times. Had BLT's made with the apple cinnamon bacon that came with the bacon sampler pack this evening. Absolutely delicious.

Le saucisson sec is my favorite thing to eat paired with cornichon with a glass of wine for aperitif. Thank you for the great product!

Get the salami. It will be your new breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

First time ordering. We brined the two turkey breasts and served them up for Thanksgiving dinner. They were awesome and everyone loved them. Tender and great size for our family of eaters! Can’t wait to try th chicken legs!

Anna, thank you so much for my order! To think I ordered my items last night and they got here today is incredible. I LOVE your products and all your hard work is so appreciated!
K
The pork is the best! Since moving to Iowa I don’t think I have ever had better meat in my life. Love to support over the moon!
J
Anna and Shae raise their animals with so much care and you can taste the difference in the meat. We made braised turkey legs with cranberry, star anise and sweet potatoes and it was delicious!

For the past 3 years, we have purchased our meat almost exclusively from Over the Moon Farm and Flowers. From our first 'whole hog' 3 years ago to the recent delivery of pork, chicken, duck, turkey, and lamb, the flavor and consistent quality of the cuts is second to none. The variety offered has expanded our menu and challenged us to try new cuts and new recipes - New Year's Eve roast duck will certainly be a new tradition. They make it easy to order on their website and then deliver right to our door! Give them a try - you will not be sorry. #knowyourfarmer!

We ordered a pasture raised turkey for Thanksgiving in 2021. This was the highest quality meet we have ever cooked. The turkey turned out juice and had such nice flavor. Getting the updates on the turkey's growth was also such a nice, human feeling touch. We will not get our turkey anywhere else. They also have a meat delivery program, it is a MUST try.
J
Superb meats, absolutely some of the best chicken, beef and pork in Iowa. Lean, deeply flavorful, delivered to your door by the nicest pair of local ranchers. I can’t recommend Anna and Shae and their meats highly enough.
E
Their pork is out of this world! Absolutely A+. Hard to stop eating:). Fully recommend.
