Hope everyone had a great day! My wife made hotdogs and beans :O

Now that's living large! ;)

Mine was a bit more sedate. Went to one of my Nephew's with my Sister and Bro-in-law, joined a bunch of relatives on his side I didn't know and we feasted on turkey, cornish hens, prime rib, backed potatos, baked mac and cheese, various veggies (I skipped those), crescent rolls, and for desert we had white and pumpkin spice cakes.

Ya' know, the usual.

I used to think this way, then one of the best mac n cheese I ever had was
a side dish at someone's house. (I can't remember who now).

However, I never do a pasta of any type as a side dish as a lot of our
family doesn't like it. (They are weird)

It's the family that counts! I was at Filoli Center, an old mansion
turned historical site that showcased all of the history of thanksgiving
there.

They had a bucket of KFC, apparently, one year they were unable to get
turkey and dined on KFC in an ornate dining room for 30.

Sounds amazing. I don't have the oven space for turkey and another
meat, Prime Rib would be amazing alongside everything else.

We did our get together yesterday. I started cooking at 6am, everything turned out good even though I threw a pie across the kitchen but we managed to save 90% of it. (My hands just randomly stop working it was not out of anger or anything... just threw the pie).

Whole Foods. Picked up a Thanksgiving "kit" in the morning. Slide a
pre-cooked turkey in the top rack, sides in the bottom, and it all
takes about an hour.

We were busy in the morning, needed something to make, fast.

arent those precooked turkeys always dry?
i tried one of those before.

I just do a brine and then cook it in an oven bag.
actually i used to have a slow cooker that was big enough for a turkey. came out great.

I don't brine. I just season it and rub some butter over it and under
the skin on the tiddies and cook it at 325 until done. (A meat thermometer)

Not dry at all, nice and juicy and tastes great!

My Nephew had no problem there. He had a commercial-grade, double-oven setup.

Prime Rib would be amazing alongside everything else.

It was. Everything was. My Nephew's quite the chef.

We have another one in our freezer as well, which the inlaws got for free. We'll have it at Christmas, as well as a small ham, since my daughter and I are the only ones in the house who still eat it.

In another life, I had one of those chest freezers in the garage with a

I had one of those too, when I had a house. Currently I live in an apartment, and when I got married again, my wife moved in with me, and I bought a chest freezer for the apartment. I put it in the dining area, and although somewhat cramped, there's still enough room to get around the dining table with the freezer there.

I have two full-size refrigerators, with associated freezers; and a
chest freezer, and a stand-up freezer. No vacuum bagger though. :-)

Ours is in the "Living room" but a section of it we use for the table.
The actual dining room is my son's bedroom (who I haven't heard from in
a week and a bit).

The smaller chest freezers are a life saver!

It's a device that takes open plastic bags, sucks the air out and seals
them with heat. Great for portioning out and freezing meat and
leftovers.

Hi Mro,

Would you ever cook a ham? Boiled in half-coke-half-water and then roasted with a brown sugar and mustard glaze.

Something special alright!
