Happy Thanksgiving!

We had our traditional pie:

 

Ya know....my whole life Thanksgiving has been the same meal. Turkey, ham, stuffing, taters, corn, pies, etc. All the traditional Thanksgiving stuff. Same with Christmas dinner. Basically a repeat of Thanksgiving.

My whole life!!! I love it, don't get me wrong. I stuff myself all day till my eyes roll back in my head and I feel like I'm going to pass out or throw up. Maybe both.....

Next year...or heck, this Christmas.....I'm doing something else! Or rather...strongly suggesting the family do something else!

 

Toothpick, a friend of mine whose family is Italian does lasagna for Thanksgiving and it's glorious.

Our birds this year:

 

Those are some good lookin' birds!

 

I try a few different methods for doing turkeys every year. We deliver a few meals on Friday and Saturday after to a few folks without family or home bound. Much and I had the same idea this year. Boned out 3 birds completely. Slapped breasts together after seasoning, and rolled the thigh legs into roulades. Rescued more than 1 Thanksgiving this year.

 

Critter Doc, those are some BEAUTIFUL turkeys!

I'd eat a slice of that boneless roll, too. And I don't even really like turkey.

 

Thanks, Lucretia! Dry-brined for five days, then smoked. Carcasses are simmering on the stovetop, well on their way to becoming stock. Your pie looks delicious - I would totally do that if my family wouldn't have a collective case of the vapors.

Mrmnms, that's awesome. Do you use transglutaminase at all to "glue" the roulade together?

 

Smoked is about the only way I really like turkey. Well done, sir!

 

That's "ma'am."

 

Don't know what you call those, Mike, but you could rescue my Thanksgiving any day.

 

mea culpa

Well done, ma'am!
