Turkey crowns are smaller, much quicker to cook, and easier to carve (no worrying about appendages).
One downside to turkey crowns is that they can be far more expensive than buying a whole turkey.
Cooking TipsAccording to the website PracticallyEdible.com:
'You may wish to wrap the Turkey Crown in tin foil for the first half of the cooking time to help keep the meat moist. Wrap it so that the join is at the top of the bird, so that you can easily open it up for the second half of the cooking for browning. Cook at 350 F (175 C). If covered, allow 18 minutes per pound / 450g. If uncovered, allow 15 minutes per pound / 450g. When done, the temperature should be 170 F (77 C) in the deepest part of the meat. Allow to rest 30 minutes, covered, outside the oven when done before serving.'
