Whether you're frying, oven roasting, grilling, or smoking (you can find our recipes for smoked and grilled turkeys here along with several grilled side dishes and desserts), actually carving the bird can be an intimidating step in the Thanksgiving meal.

After all, you've worked so hard to make the bird super moist and golden brown and there is likely a big group of family ready to judge your technique.

To get you prepped, be sure to check out the Buzzfeed video below which not only shows how to quickly remove the turkey legs, thighs, and wings, but how to properly carve the breast meat as well (hint: dad's method of carving off slices directly from the bone leads to less tender meat as you are cutting with the natural grain of the meat versus removing the breast and cutting it against the grain).

Happy Thanksgiving and break a (turkey) leg!
