The Best Ever Thanksgiving Roast
Posted by Peter Marsh on 29th Nov 2020
I ordered a 3 Bird Roast for my American family at the start of last week. This was the best roast I'd ever eaten! It was delivered on time perfectly chilled, and was a huge success! I highly recommend!

A triumph for all the family!
Posted by David Yarrow on 24th Nov 2020
I ordered a small bird roast which I had with son last weekend for an early Christmas lunch as he is flying back to the US later this week. The bird roast was perfectly delivered in a temperature cooled box, and delivered very conveniently early on the morning that I requested delivery.
The cooking instructions giving on the website were spot on! We thoroughly enjoyed the bird roast, it was wonderfully moist, and was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be coming back in 2021! Well done James Alexander Fine Foods!

Great Customer Service!
Posted by Bob Shaw on 23rd Nov 2020
I've just placed my order for an early Christmas lunch in December with my family. I have been waiting hesitantly for the governments advice on whether Christmas will go ahead or not, but it seems it will. I stumbled across James Alexander Fine Foods as this year I would like to try a Bird Roast. I spoke to their customer services, and got through straight away, and they were extremely helpful in helping me decided what size of bird to choose for my family and I. I could not get through on the phone to Waitrose at all, so I decided it was a great idea to choose James Alexander Fine Foods. I cannot wait to receive my order.

a crowd pleaser

Had one of these for Christmas, my family were unsure about the change from a whole turkey but enjoyed it so much they requested one for Easter. It didn’t disappoint, wonderful tasty moist bird feast. Thank you.

More duck please
Posted by Unknown on 5th Jan 2018
I had read all of the reviews before ordering my 3 bird roast. I saw that a few had mentioned the lack of duck. I was advised by James Alexander this had now been corrected.
I have to say the roast itself was very moist, arrived well packaged and on time. Followed cooking instructions, just perfect. BUT there was very little duck, which was dissapointing. All in all though we enjoyed it very much.

Stress free Christmas Day
Posted by Raymond on 4th Jan 2018
This was our first experience of a 3 bird roast & we all were very impressed. The food arrived on time, was very easy to cook & turned out to be moist, flavoursome & most important of all, sufficient to feed 6 hungry adults. Well done, James Alexander Fine Foods!

We were quite worried about the cooking time because it looked too easy from the website...but it was true: no problem and finished in just two days by four people. P E R F E C T !

Christmas Day Wonder
Posted by Steve and Maria on 27th Dec 2017
This was our first time ordering with your website and we were most impressed. The roast was absolutely delicious and succulent. We ordered the 2kg bird and there was plenty for leftovers as no waste. As someone else has previously mentioned, it is a bit hard to tell which meat was which.
However, we will definitely order next year!!

Tasty and moist 3 bird roast
Posted by Amanda on 26th Dec 2017
This is the second time we bought our Xmas roast from you. Thank you so much for sending out the roast which arrived right on time again! It was really easy to cook (great cooking instructions online) and tasted moist and delicious. Plenty to go round - 2.5kilo bird was plenty for 5 adults (and we all had seconds) plus enough for sandwiches later. See you next year!
3 Bird Roast
Product Description
The Ultimate Award-Winning Joint – boneless, easy to carve, full of flavour and guaranteed to impress.
Our famous hand prepared 3 bird roasts are made to order from Turkey, Chicken and Duck, expertly combined together so that each bird cooks the next one inside and the juices combine exquisitely.
Luxury award-winning gluten free pork sausage stuffing is then added to ensure exquisite taste and melt-in-the-mouth texture. Lastly, the joint is dressed with award-winning Cumbrian pancetta and a couple of sprigs of thyme to maintain the succulent flavours inside and to add visual “wow” effect.
After the main feast any that is left over also tastes very good cold, so you can look forward to another treat if you don’t finish it in the first sitting.
A Great Taste Award winner worthy of the prize.
How to Cook your Bird Roast
- Bring the joint up to room temperature.
- Pre-heat your oven to 190°c/375° (170°c or gas mark 5 for fan assisted ovens)
- Calculate the cooking time allowing 50 minutes per kg, then add 15-20 minutes to overall cooking time
- Remove the packaging and place in a large roasting tray
- Season well
- Cover with a loose tent of foil
- Place in the middle of your pre-heated oven
- Roast for the calculated time basting every 30 to 40 minutes
- Remove the foil tent 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time to brown and crisp the skin
- Check that it is cooked by inserting a skewer – the juices should run clear. If they are a little pink give them 15 minutes more and check again
- Transfer to a serving platter and tightly cover in the foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving
