Our History

This Turkey Here was created in 2019 and established in 2020. It’s owner, Fredrick Russell, had a passion for delicious food. He grew up shadowing his granny in the kitchen as she prepared some of his favorite dishes to date. He would later go to pursue a career in the restaurant industry where he cooked for a few pubs and even was a grillman for J Alexander’s.

After gaining a vast amount of experience he left the kitchen to pursue a role in restaurant management. This path led him to a general manager position where he was the overseer of the catering and food truck department for Demo’s steak and spaghetti. His experience there is what led to the birth of This Turkey Here. He’s been showing people how turkey should taste ever since.

This Turkey Here is a food truck birthed out of the Nashville area. It is a concept built around ” turkey everything” starting with the turkey burger. We use Butterball’s all natural ground turkey, seasoning with a mixture of garlic powder, Italian herbs and spices and Greek seasoning. We have four different creations Jive Turkey: your standard burger, standard toppings. Not boring, just standard. The Ninja Turkey: this agile burger comes with a kick and a crunch. (Thank you Pastor T. W Bell) The Gobbler: for those who miss Thanksgiving year round.
Guajolote: sweet, spicy and hard to pronounce

Next we have decided to venture the wraps. In this category we feature our gourmet turkey salad wrap. Made with our oven roasted turkey breast, Dukes mayo, Grey Poupon, parmesan cheese, dried cranberries and candied walnuts. This wrap is fancy enough to stand alone, for now.

Ever heard of a Turkey tender? Our Turkey tenders are hand sliced, marinated in two types of pickle juice and buttermilk. Have em grilled or hand breaded and fried. Either way, these tenders will have you asking others, “Have you ever heard of a turkey tender?

New creations coming soon, wee promise
