Bought this because of the reviews but I have to say it was the worst Turkey I've ever had. I brine it overnight and use my internal " Meater" that gives real time temp on my phone. It was tough, almost like a crappy piece of steak. Butterball is the only way to go!!

I bought the Members Mark Young Smoked Cooked Turkey at the club, and I have never had a turkey that was so tender and so full of juice and flavor in all the years I've been cooking Turkeys, which would be 40 years of dried out Turkeys. I hope Sams Club has this already cooked, smoked, young whole Turkey available for Christmas. I hope Sam's carries this Turkey every year from now on because I don't ever want to cook another Turkey ever after having the Member's Mark smoked cooked turkey. I didn't do anything but heat it for 1 hour and 45 minutes, and I could taste the smoked flavor. It was so very tender, juicy, and wonderful. I realize the turkey that I have reviewed here is not the one that is smoked and already cooked, but I couldn't find it online to review, and I want everyone to know that the Member's Mark Young Smoked Cooked Whole Turkey was the absolute best! Thank you Jane

Listen to the BAD reviews. I bought this turkey out of convenience as I was picking up other things for Thanksgiving here and Scan and Go makes shopping super quick. Turkey is turkey right? Wrong, go buy Butterball or any of the name brand turkeys. This was a TOUGH turkey. I breakdown and section off my turkey to cook the breasts and leg&thigh separately so that they cook evenly to the right temperatures. I dry brine the night before and since they are sectioned off, I can season all parts of the turkey for maximum flavor. Even with all that, turkey was a bit tough and had minimal flavor. Very little pan drippings like the meat was very lean and no fat. Made turkey stock from the carcass and there was very little fat on top! Strange, I think this turkey ran a marathon and lost all its body fat before Thanksgiving. If you want lean, non greasy turkey, this is it. TOUGH and DRY as it gets.

We made the error and purchased 2 if these turkeys for a family gathering ...and they were so nasty they could not be chewed...not even the dogs ate it ...while sams made a nice profit sell old tasteless birds ...our and many other did not have a Thanksgiving dinner due to they Nasty birds that are being sold ...never again ...I guess it's anything for a profit ...what happe d to customer satisfaction

I've been cooking turkey the same way for almost 25 years. We always buy different brands and there was never a problem. Our turkeys have always been moist, tender and flavorful. This is the first time it was not any of those things. We noticed that there was barely any juices during roasting to use for basting. That should have been a big clue. We've never seen that before. When it was time to slice into it, it was like the scene from "Christmas Vacation" where Clark starts slicing and the whole bird was so dry that it basically exploded only to reveal just bones. Awful. I'll never buy this brand again of turkey again.

The WORST turkey I've ever bought and served. No flavor, tough, chewy, and dry. Bleh! I was so excited to drive to Sam's 2 hours each way to get this awesome turkey. Cooked it the same as have over 40 years. No one, not even the cats want leftovers. Terrible quality product.

My only real issue is the size I received. I ordered for pick up. Lesson learned there. However, I chose the option for the 18-25 lb turkey and then got an 8.99lb turkey. I mean that's a drastic difference, and that's lso smaller than the other option you can select from. If they are going to have turkeys smaller than the smallest size listed, then they need to have that option in the first place. I wonder if my shopper even looked at the size to begin with when they grabbed it.

Good for the price

.NEVER BUY A SAMS TURKEY

No flavor even after injecting marinade. Threw most of it away.
