How do you remove the breast bone and meat of a turkey?

The wishbone is easily removed from the turkey after cooking, but it can be cut out of the turkey prior to cooking by pulling the front skin back from the breast. The wishbone should appear close to the surface where you can use a sharp knife to cut along both sides of the two prongs of the wishbone. You will then need to use the knife to cut underneath the wishbone itself to separate it from the meat. Remove the wishbone, and pull the skin back down over the breast.
