Thanksgiving Menu?

fireball77 · Nov 21, 2012

So what is yours, do you do the traditional turkey, and taters , or go for something different ie roast, ham, dove , moose etc

I love traditional, and I have to have sweet potatoes, and cranberry salad, amongst other things.

mntman · Nov 21, 2012

Will likely have leftovers from tonight, or chicken nuggets. and then a pop tart, some sort of fruit and pudding cups... I work tomorrow :-(

Let me guess, you drive a 1 ton with oak trees for smoke stacks, 12" lift kit and 40" tires to pull a single place lawn mower trailer? See Zeke for prime example....

fireball77 · Nov 21, 2012

That sounds not fun, at least go get a Swanson turkey dinner

mntman · Nov 21, 2012

I can't stand those microwaveable meals, 2 out 3 items always taste like moldy elk crap :-(

There is a 14 lb Hickory Smoked Ham in the oven right now that should be done at 4PM. Already made the shrimp salad, i like the flavor of the shrimp to soak in everything else in the bowl. Have a 5 lb bag of Red potatoes to clean and boil, sour cream and good butter to go with. A crunchy top apple pie will do for desert.

I expect a buddy, two, maybe more, will drop by starting this evening as i had mentioned that they were more than welcome. No matter, i'll have plenty and then some plus good makings to a pot of beans later on.

Happy Holidays Folks!!

happy thanksgiving to all!

RELH · Nov 21, 2012

Fireball, my wife and two daughters-in-law are preparing just about everything you can expect for a Thanksgiving dinner. I even suspect the kitchen sink might be in there somewhere.
Turkey, ham, giblet gravey, mashed potatoes, yams, green bean cassarole, cornbread dressing, cranberry sauce, several different pies and a few other things I have forgotten.

Will be feeding 12 this season. what is my favorite? The turkey noodle soup and turkey sandwiches made from the left overs. Also left over ham will be going into a pot of beans for that warmup on cold days. I better tell the wife to make some sweet cornbread to go with that pot of beans.

Joey be sure to put a small wood ladder in that pot of beans so the little farts will climb out!!!!

Roy · Nov 21, 2012

My wife is going to overcook a turkey again this year. She will make freaking brussel sprouts, potato pearl mashed potatoes, 3 bean salad and stove top stuffing. At least I like the stuffing.

HOOK 'EM!

Roy, take your wife and go to your Sis for dinner. Now you know why I married the farmer's daughter. They learned how to make it from scratch from their momma.

I sense a touch of culinary marital animosity.

rutnbuck · Nov 21, 2012

Traditional for sure. Sweet Patato Stuffing Thighs and eating Pie!

You all have a great holiday.

1911 that is the understatement of the year. I think Roy is saying that his wife's Thanksgiving dinner sucks! We need to hang on to that post. We can bribe the crap out of him by threating to show it to his wife.

Oh! forget it. I am sure Roy's sis has already made a copy and will be getting even with her brother for the next year or so.

I just put a turkey in my smoker.....also have one coming from my buddy who is doing about 10 in his deep pit. Ham will go in the smoker at about 10am......as for the rest of the fixins, that will be taken care of by the women.

LESGO54 · Nov 22, 2012

ill be working, but i was told we will have turkey, and a whole roasted pig and many other things.

Roy · Nov 22, 2012

HA HA! Just kidding - although I would LOVE to be at Mom and TripleK's feast this year (in the Bookcliffs - turkey cooked in the dutch oven, homemade stuffing, the works!)

My wife does just fine in the cooking department, and I do just fine in the eating department! We had turkey (it was a little less moist than I prefer, but still very good), homemade rolls (her specialty and they are GOOO OOOO OOOOOD!)with homemade pomegranate jam (from her uncle' farm in So. Utah), creamed corn (delicious) baked yams, mashed taters, homemade gravy, cranberry sauce, and "Kayson's favorite salad" (cottage cheese/jello/cool whip - my oldest's boys favorite since he was a baby). Pumpkin pie with homemade whipped cream comes later.

Yep - plenty to be thankful for!

HOOK 'EM!

Roy, you whiner, you had a great meal, and here you made us think you were going to have to eat items that were not among your favorites.
If you want a very moist turkey, you need to use those cooking bags to keep the moisture in. The breast meat on ours were very moist and just fell apart.

Now Red and I are thinking about the same thing. Homemade turkey noodle soup and turkey sandwiches. Plenty of ham left over for that big pot of beans in a few days. We have alot to be thankful for in this country!!!!

LAST EDITED ON Nov-23-12 AT 09:25PM (MST)[p]I went out this afternoon and bought ANOTHER turkey.

Gluttonous relatives ate ALL the turkey yesterday and there was none left over for turkey sandwiches.......which, as far as I am concerned, is why Ben Franklin invented the turkey in the first place.
