Turkey may be famous for Thanksgiving, but it's far too good to enjoy only once a year.

Whether you're smoking a turkey for a special gathering, roasting one for a holiday meal, or pulling a turkey from the freezer for an easy family dinner, turkey is a flavorful, versatile protein that can provide multiple meals from a single bird.

One of our favorite strategies is to cook two turkeys at once and stash the extra meat in the freezer. That way, we always have delicious smoked or roasted turkey on hand for soups, salads, pot pies, and quick meals throughout the year.

Below you'll find our favorite turkey recipes, including smoked and roasted turkey, plus plenty of ideas for using leftovers. From hearty soups to fresh salads and family-friendly comfort foods, these recipes will help you make the most of every bird.
