What's on your Thanksgiving menu?

[Kaido]

I'm doing the turkey this year, so I'm thinking of doing an apple cider brine and then either smoking it on a pellet grill or trying out an electric turkey cooker: (the reviews are surprisingly good, especially for the price!)

I've also been working on my Sweet Potato Pie recipe and will probably pick up some Lingonberry syrup from Ikea to make my own Nectar of the Swedes. How about you?

Thanksgiving? It's almost Christmas time!

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Sadness.

 

[Fritzo]

Hmm...might try something different this year and try this turkey thing everyone keeps talking about.

 

[z1ggy]

Whatever my g/f and her dad make. And def pie. Oh my goodness lots of pie.

 

[Kaido]

I wonder if there's a Vegan Turducken :hmm:

I feel a niche Kickstarter campaign coming on :biggrin:

 

[Kaido]

I should also note, I have tried Tofurky before and it is Not Bad. I had the deli kind on a sandwich once; while it wouldn't be my go-to sandwich filler, I wouldn't object to eating it again.

Thanksgiving? It's almost Christmas time!

So my family ate all of the Halloween candy before Halloween, forcing me to visit the grocery store ON Halloween to get more. Not only were they out of Halloween candy, but the shelves that were empty were being filled with Christmas stuff. Not Thanksgiving stuff, Christmas stuff. TOO EARLY!! :thumbsdown:

Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cream corn. We keep it simple, but everything is homemade.

Brussel sprouts without bacon are not brussel sprouts

Brussel sprouts without bacon are not brussel sprouts

If it is inedible without bacon it isn't really food to begin with.

My wife got very upset with me when I used this argument against collared greens. "Bacon makes it taste good." Well what sort of argument is that? Bacon makes cat litter taste good, that doesn't make it a good culinary choice. If you have to add bacon to something to make it edible, you aren't improving bad food, you're just ruining bacon.

Turkey
Stuffing
Glorious Potatoes (O'Brien + cream and cheddar cheese + cream of mushroom + onions + topped with butter soaked corn flakes) - even the lightest eaters get 3 servings of this; so good.
Spinach with onions, topped with sautéed mushroom caps and cheddar cheese
Cranberry sauce
Grape and Apple salad
Dinner rolls

Pinot Grigio
Moscata for those that like sweet wine

Apple Squares with Vanilla ice cream
Coffee

Fiance will go to her mom's early in the AM to help.
I will go to her mom's for feasting and desert some time in the afternoon. It will be delicious. Her mom's a great cook.

That's pretty much my recipe I do throw in a little onion too.

I had a collared green wrap recently, it was actually pretty awesome:

Since we don't celebrate thanksgiving in my country so i would like to say HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all People who celebrate !

Have no idea, the family celebration will be hosted by my vegetarian cousin. The only thing I know is there won't be any turkey.

I'll probably roast a turkey over the post-Thanksgiving weekend. Need my fix of turkey, stuffing, gravy, etc. <drool>
