As if you needed another reason to like Matthew McConaughey, the Men’s Journal October cover star delivered hot turkey meals to first responders all around Houston on Sunday. The effort was a way to thank them for their service during Hurricane Harvey, which tore through the city in August 2017. He partnered with Wild Turkey to give out the meals, and master distiller Eddie Russell, who helped McConaughey develop his signature Longbranch whiskey, joined him in meeting police officers, firefighters, 911 operators, nurses, and others who helped the city recover from the destructive storm.

The initiative was part of the annual “Wild Turkey Gives Back” campaign, and marks the second year that the Oscar winner has teamed up with the distillery for charity. Last year, McConaughey and Wild Turkey delivered over 4,500 turkeys to residents of Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, where Wild Turkey is based. This year, McConaughey wanted to do something to recognize the work of first responders in his home state. In order to view the video, please allow Manage Cookies

I am glad to make it to Houston to recognize how important these folks are.”
