If you carve your turkey with a dull knife and no plan of attack then “you’re doing it all wrong,” says Chef Mark Dommen. No worries, Chef Mark is about to share several helpful tips for carving a turkey the right way. Among his tips, he advises not to cut the turkey in front of guests, but inside the kitchen where you have more room to move and away from the public pressure.

He recommends starting by removing the legs first. Then remove the entire breast by cutting along the keel bone. When you cut the breast, slice across the grain as it will make it easier to eat! He even has a tip for what to do with the carcass.
