Papasmurf (or my dad, for those who don't remember him on here) is bringing green bean casserole and bread out of his bread machine.

Just three of us and a toddler, so I think we'll have plenty. :)

I stand corrected. The boyfriend is making turkey ballotine.

Let us know how that acidic brine works for you?

I bought 4 ducks and 2 Honeysuckle white birds ($.34lb) when they were on sale so I will be smokin/ frying birds in the spring, until then they enjoy the freezer. I picked up a couple of green hams from my upscale butcher, great price, one I will freeze and the other will brine in the fridge of the RV for 36 hours and get smoked in AZ. Brine is nothing fancy but lots of clove embedded into the meat.
I am hoping to stud it with hab. pepper chunks but the SO does and will make an opinion known on that her opinion counts. I wannas try ghost peppers but not only is she hot but she knows how to fight dirty. Not going to take that chance.

Have a great T-Day. Make some memories....

Got the turkey in a brine now:

Water
Salt
Sugar
Orange slices
Lemon slices
Lime slices
Onion
Garlic
Thyme

First time I've used that brine, but it smelled fantastic on the stove.

I think the sides are corn, mashed potatoes & gravy, biscuits, green bean casserole, Mac n cheese, and pumpkin pie for dessert. Pretty simple, but I'm looking forward to a small thanksgiving at home for the first time in a while. We're usually traveling to family or going to a friend's house.

My mom moved to alabama this year, my sister has her own family and kids and is kind of a stuck up bitch, and my brother is doing stuff with his girlfriends family. My ladys family are all going to arkansas so that leaves just me, her, and my 5 year old.

We decided instead of doing all the work we are just going to go to fogo de Chao on the plaza instead. Brazilian thanksgiving here we come!

If the pilgrims had landed in Brazil, I would live in the middle of the Amazon.

I'm having Thanksgiving dinner at my father-in-law's assisted living home. I assume that it will be a traditional Thanksgiving meal but without any crunchy things.

Have a good one TimBone, sometimes staying home for Thanksgiving is for the best. I'm basically doing the same this year. Going to see my great grandmother at her retirement home, but otherwise, dinner is at home this year. Which reminds me, I need to get some whiskey before the stores close.

Nice! Have a good one, man! What's your whiskey?

Not cooking for the first time in almost 20 years. Going over to a friend's house. I'll make some stuffing and a pecan pie but that's pretty low key for me.

I traditionally make egg nog the Saturday after Thanksgiving. I put in enough whiskey and rum that it won't go bad and I age it until Christmas. Makes it really smooth and a great after dinner treat for Christmas dinner.

Anybody else make and/or age egg nog?

Premade cornbread dressing tonight, prolly looks like poo too.

I have about a quart left from two years ago. It's awesome.
