Hmm. I was hoping for a bit of a refresher on how to de-bone the carcass for Turducken this christmas, but you've done the crown backwards. It's alright though, I remember now.
What I do is flay the legs but leave them attached, take the bone out, then peel the breast skin back, and cut down the breastbone from the middle to flay it out on either side. Then I come around the bottom to cut the entire ribcage and spine out, and that leaves it all open for stuffing.
Then once it's open and stuffed, I fold the breasts back over the top, and pull the intact breast skin back over the top. You dont need to truss it or anything, the skin holds it all together. Then I put the leg bones back in just to conduct the heat right into the meat while it cooks, and when everything comes out the oven, I just pull the bones out and they're ready for tomorrow's soup. Same goes for the wings, dead easy to bone out and leave them attached for a whole, boneless turkey.
Excellent video. Very helpful
