Bradshaw International 25980 Stainless Steel Turkey Lacer

I use turkey screwers a lot! Cleaning little cracks or crevices. Emergency toothpicks, and checking baked potatoes They seem to disappear around here. Last Thanksgiving, I had to lace up the turkey with toothpicks and dental floss!

These were fine enough compared to what can be found locally for probably a bit less- just couldn’t find close by this season so it was more convenient to order with free shipping.

I have been using this style for over 40 years. It’s the best design to properly truss a turkey cavity and neck. It’s the only style I use and have packed it in my suitcase if I’ll be cooking the turkey out of town.

These arrived on time and were as you would expect. It came with half a dozen metal prongs and some thread. It was easy enough to answer them in the turkey. We bent ours as we were putting them in so I consider them single use, but someone who is more careful could reuse them.

I gave this as a gift, but I have used these for years and they are very handy when stuffing a turkey to keep it all inside!

I had a slight problem having the lacing string staying put because of the the shape of the wires.

It is what it says it is, no surprises of poor quality yet but I will know soon if they develop rust. It always surprises me when stainless steel items rust. After I purchased these I was shopping in a local discount store which sold another brand of this same style for ninety cents, so you may want to shop local.

I used these to insert into potatoes for baking so the middle will cooker faster since it conducts heat. These feel very cheap and I thought they would bend when I insert these in the potato and they don't so since it does what I want it to do, I'm happy with them.
