"June is Turkey Lovers'® Month," and it's the perfect opportunity to blend two of America's favorite summer treats—turkey and grilling. Last year, Americans ate 18 pounds of turkey per person and fired up their grills more than 2.7 billion times.
With society's increasing demand for great food without a lot of work, it is easy to see why turkey and grilling are growing in popularity. Turkey, for instance, is more convenient than ever. The variety of turkey products available in the local grocery store keeps increasing. Turkey tenderloins, steaks, boneless breasts and drums are a delicious, economical way to enjoy the great taste of turkey throughout the year. These cuts are perfect for the grill, and leftovers (if there are any) are ideal for summer picnics and making great salads, sandwiches and snacks.
