  1. excellent product, very juicy! 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 26th Dec 2017

    We ordered a 3kg five bird roast, even though there are only 2 of us, because we like to have plenty left over for sandwiches and a curry on boxing day.
    The ordering and delivery process was extremely efficient and it arrived as expected on the 22nd December (nice and early too, so I didn't have to wait in all day).
    We cooked the bird as per the online instructions (although I did also get these emailed to me on Christmas eve).
    The roast was lovely and moist, and although I found it a bit difficult to detect the difference between some of the different meats, it was delicious for our Christmas dinner yesterday.
    I would only comment that depending on appetite size, I am not sure we could have fed 9-10 with this for Christmas dinner - but then we maybe just like a big portion!
    I would definitely use this company again.


  2. Impressed from ordering to the table 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 26th Dec 2017

    I cannot say enough about how impressed I am. First the ordering process was so easy, I requested a specific delivery date and the day before I received notification that my delivery would be before 4pm, it arrived just before 2:30pm. I then received an email with full cooking instructions which I followed to the letter. Our Christmas dinner was by far the best I’ve ever made. The bird was so tasty, easy to carve and not one bit dry, a tender, moist and full of flavour. I have already decided where I am going to get next years dinner. At first I felt I was spending rather a lot on the 5 Bird roast, however now I feel it was worth every penny spent and with no waste at all. Looking forward to my future purchases. Thank you


  3. 5 Bird Roast 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 26th Dec 2017

    The product had the wow factor at the Christmas table, it was liked by all.
    I got the 12 person and it’s feed 8 adults and 4 children and half left.
    Having the cooking instruction email was just service on and beyond. After a email with call back as I had messed up the delivery details all sorted very prompt
    I would defiantly go to James Alexander foods we’d site first for a function show stopper
    Well done and thank you James


  4. Fantastic value and a real treat 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 25th Dec 2017

    Excellent from start to finish. Easy to order, regular updates, delivery tracking, timely arrival, well presented, clear storing / cooking instructions and most importantly very very tasty.

    Highly recommended


  5. succulent, tasty treat 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 25th Dec 2017

    Tender, tasty meats. Easy to carve. Superb taste both hot and cold. Good portions for the 6 of us who shared it, with lots left over for sandwiches. My 5 year old granddaughter was thrilled to have pheasant included and asked if she could have left overs in the evening- 2 Christmas dinners in one day! Excellent service and very helpful when I telephoned with a special requirement.


  6. I can only comment on the service so far.... 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 23rd Dec 2017

    .... as the item has been delivered to a family member to bring to the continent for new year. The company could not have been more helpfui and I am sure that it will be as delicious as I anticipate.


  7. excellent all round 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 10th Dec 2017

    We ordered a 4kg multibird roast for a party of 8 adults and 8 kids. It was ample with some left over. We were all really impressed, it looked and tasted delicious - a real showstopper for a Xmas get together. It was also very straightforward to cook. The service was exceptional, from helpful advice about quantities, to providing a gluten free option, to delivering it exactly as requested. I can’t recommend this highly enough.


  8. Excellent quality 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 8th Jan 2017

    A problem with the delivery courier was quickly and efficiently resolved by Oliver personally delivering our roast to us himself. Brilliant customer service, thanks.
    The cooked 5 bird roast did not disappoint on Christmas day. It was moist and very tasty, as was the cold left over meat afterwards.
    I would have no hesitation in ordering from James Alexander Fine Foods again.


  9. Tasty 5 bird roast 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 3rd Jan 2016

    We received our 2kg bird exactly when we expected. It would have been useful to have cooked temperature guidelines as it was slightly dry plus it was hard to distinguish all 5 birds.


  10. Excellent 5 Bird Road 5 Star Review

    Posted by on 30th Dec 2015

    We ordered the 5 bird roast for 12 people (3kg) - the ordering process was smooth, the office delightful and everything delivered on time.

    The birds were not easily distinguishable but it tasted utterly delicious and was thoroughly enjoyed by 12 people (I'm not sure what else I would have got in my oven for 12, so this is a brilliant solution). There was plenty for everyone and cold left over which was equally delicious. Thank- you I will definitely recommend you and for £78 I thought it was excellent value to feed that many people.

Product Description

The Ultimate Award-Winning Joint – Boneless, easy to carve, full of flavour and guaranteed to impress.

Our famous hand prepared 5 bird roasts are made to order from Turkey, Pheasant, Chicken, Duck and Wild Wood Pigeon, expertly combined together so that each bird cooks the next one inside and the juices combine exquisitely.

Our free-range birds are reared using traditional methods, roaming and foraging as they please. Our focus on provenance and welfare ensures the highest-quality Christmas meat for your festive dinner table.

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.

A Great Taste Award winner worthy of the prize.

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.

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 40 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
