Our Happy Winner!
11.28.11
The week before the Thanksgiving holiday, we had an awesome giveaway of a fresh, never frozen, free range, all natural turkey from California courtesy of The Meat House. The winner, Norma Jean, a local comedienne and actress, was super excited to claim her prize. Her local turkey was tender, juicy and had that real old-fashioned turkey flavor that you can actually taste.
To take the hassle out of your next holiday meal, make sure to visit The Meat House for your December family gatherings!
