Willow ,'Get It Done'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I have no grand thanksgiving turkey traditions, so I'm not parital to much of anything. Bringing the turkey last year was good, though, and I'd love to try butterflying the turkey and seasoning the stuffing/dressing in the manner that Jessica described.
But I'm not particularly attached to any one method.
I also, even though I mentioned it in jest upthread, do not fear the Grim Salmonella Reaper WRT turkey either.
Mat tbelieves in over stuffing the Turkey. I don't eat the white meat - just the dark , so it is always moist enough. Oddly, right now I would like a thanksgiving feast. Somehow, I feel that it isn't going to happen
I'm totally going to Marie Callendar's for their turkey lunch today.
actually, my favorite turkey dinner as at Redbones, the Somerville BBQ place, on Tuesday nights. for $8.99, you get a heaping plate of smoked turkey, sausage & cornbread stuffing, mashed potatoes, corn with jalepeno, cornbread, cranberry sauce, and gravy.
If I could eat that on Thanksgiving along with several delicious beers, I certainly would. Otherwise, I'm a bit on the underwhelmed side about the whole endeavor. No one in my family enjoys cooking Thanksgiving dinner, and whenever Tom and I do it, it's freaking exhausting. (Same for Xmas)

Since this year we're doing both families at Christmas instead of one at Thanksgiving, it'll probably be just us for Thanksgiving. We'll have to figure out how to do Thanksgiving dinner for two plus one finicky nibbler.
Marie Callendar makes a really good turkey frozen dinner. Actually all of their frozen dinners are really good, but the turkey and the meatloaf are my favorites.
I think my family-in-law is going to try the CI turkey recipe this year.

Heh. I had to laugh at myself after I posted that. Could I BE any more anti-holiday? I didn't even mean to do it this time!

You can buy just the breast and roast it. That and two or three sides seem to do for the three of us.
