Watch an award-winning turducken assembler do his thing. (Step-by-step instructions included.)

Thanksgiving is right around the corner...

which means it's TURDUCKEN time!

You'll need...

1 turkey (16-18 lbs)

1 chicken (around 4 lbs)

4 boneless duck breasts (around 2 lbs total)

Stuffing (around 4 lbs of your favorite recipe)

Butcher's twine

A sharp knife

A trussing needle (like this one)

Here's how to do it...

Veteran butcher Armand Ferrante, who won the 2012 Whole Foods Best Butcher Award, shows you how to make a perfect turducken.

Step 1: Debone the turkey.

Working with a very sharp knife, remove the chest cavity and thigh bones.

Step 2: Layer in some stuffing.

Place stuffing under the breasts and where the thigh bone used to be.

Step 3: Debone the chicken the same way.

Step 4: Lay the chicken inside the turkey, layering with stuffing.

Step 5: Skin the duck breasts.

Step 6: Lay the duck breasts on top of the chicken.

Step 7: Sew up the back, using butcher twine.

Step 8: Tie butcher string around the Turducken so that it maintains its shape.

Step 9: Admire your creation.

Step 10: Roast.

Roast the turducken at 375°F for around 25 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature is 165°F.

Step 11: DESTROY.
