Carving a turkey takes more finesse than just sawing into a bird with a sharp blade. There’s a more thoughtful way to carve breast meat from your turkey.

Carve your breast meat completely off of the bone and place on a workable surface before cutting it into portions, as demonstrated in this “Tipline” video.

With your turkey on a steady surface, you have better control of both the knife as you slice the breast into individual portions, and create a prettier, more uniform presentation for serving.
