Thanksgiving & Christmas Dinner

Sauce is clear gelled. Relish has chunks, and sometimes not cooked.

We had an XO that made this for our turkey burn feast and it was always a huge hit!

My sister turned me onto it. Ingredients sound odd, but oh so good!

My family has spoken. It will be Italian Ricotta Cheesecake for dessert. Thanks for all the ideas and recipes!!

If I see a nice rib roast, I'll sous vide one of those

Harris Teeter had them on sale, picked one up for New Year.

Had a half turkey in the freezer, took it out to defrost. I had cut it in half and put this half in a vacuum sealed bag. Apparently had a leak, wasn't vacuum sealed anymore, and had lots of ice on the bird. Hoping after a slow defrost it will be ok, and not dry.

Going to brine it, then smoke it.

We're going to Dat Cajun Place for a traditional TG buffet - turkey, ham, and all the trimmings.

I don't know what the dealio is anymore. I can eat a half a sandwich if it has mayo on it ...

So, may I have the other half?

Speaking of sausage, does anyone have BS Gals sausage and cheese bread recipe?

Found an old thread, Vrai said she had it.

 

[Monello]

If anyone has any great tips or recipes for those, please let me know!

Dauphinoise potatoes.

We're actually dialing it DOWN this time around, because we only have ONE guest and the rest of the family - so just fried turkey, spiral ham, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, mashed red potatoes, homemade mac and cheese, stuffing, pumpkin and apple pie - and - I think that's it. We usually have so much stuff, you could never get a bit of everything. Back when it was the entire extended family at my parents, there was always stuff you never even SAW.

But I think last year we started a new tradition for Christmas dinner, when I learned that a lot of people serve prime rib roast. I have so much choice cuts of beef, there will be no turkey this time.

I'm just finishing my b'fast and coffee. Trying to get motivated to start prepping and you've been at it for ... what, hours? already?

This is my recipe. I've tried other methods, and always come back to this one. Southern Living recipes for the win!

Blue is yucky fish, but wonderful smoked this way! I do salmon for Thanksgiving because that's what everyone likes.

All prepped, bird on the smoker.
