Thanksgiving dinner: turkey, wild rice, green bean casserole, roasted Brussels sprouts/carrots, yams, giblet gravy. Our daughter and granddaughter came to spend a few days with us so we went ahead with a holiday meal. When I worked as a wellsite consultant in the oilfields Thanksgiving dinner was any day that week I would be home for the whole day so my kids grew up eating Thanksgiving dinner any day of the week.

Love kkakdugi
I add some pear puree to mine. I also weep the radish first in 50/50 salt and sugar. After it ferments it wont taste sweet at all.
I did the same thing! I did 2 tbsp salt to 2 tbsp sugar for about an hour and then poured the juice out and added it back as needed!
Grilled tri-tip with salad made with greens, apples, Stilton cheese, figs, and walnuts.
Pork steaks with mushroom gravy, aborio rice risotto with green onions, mushrooms, and mozzarella. Roasted asparagus.
Anybody else here watch Sam the Cooking Guy on YouTube? I made his recipe for Jerk Chicken Thighs last night - pretty good stuff. I used riced cauliflower in place of the Basmati rice and reduced the liquids to compensate. Forgot to take pictures but he has them on his website if you care to look at the recipe/photos directly from him.

8lb bone in turkey breast for sammies. Turned out perfect and i left it to rest until fully cooled so it stays moist. Skin was seasoned with salt, pepper and McCormick's poultry seasoning. Covered in avocado oil first.
Round 2 of Instant Pot tests. 2 turkey thighs, 2 necks (not shown) and some bone broth. Pressure cooked on high for 30min. Tossed under the broiler for a few minutes to crisp the skin. They appeared to be tender. Neck meat pulled off very easy. Quart of the stock was saved for later use.

Wife and I watch him every MWF. He's a real hoot. The jerk chicken recipe sounds good. We may have to make it some time.
Duck soup.
Cottage pie.
Happy Thanksgiving to all those celebrating today! May your turkey be moist and delicious and your gravy lump-free.
My turkey dry-brined for 24 hours, then I rinsed it off and patted it dry yesterday late afternoon and put it back in the fridge uncovered so the skin will get nice and crispy today. Made a keto pumpkin pie, have garlicky green beans, mashed cauliflower, home-canned cranberry jalapeno sauce, and keto turkey gravy, and of course the 13 pound turkey. Can't wait! It's just the two of us so we'll put the turkey in around 11 and eat when it's done. Trying out my "new to me" Dacor oven with the temp probe...hope it works well. Will have my instant read thermometer at the ready to double-check.

It‘s just Hubby and myself for the holidays this year (all family is living out of state now) so the menu was cut back a little, though we didn’t lack variety. Stuffing, fresh green beans, juicy roasted turkey with lump free gravy, homemade cranberry sauce, mash, homemade dinner roll, and creamed boiling onions. Happy Thanksgiving.
We had Fajitas with guacamole and black beans.

Thanksgiving leftover breakfast is the best!
I made one a couple weeks ago with ground pork and mashed yam on top (because it's what I had) and was surprised how good it turned out.
Sweet Potato Shepherd's Pie
Sounds interesting, did you use wine or substitute beer or broth?
I used homemade Apfelwein.
Have you ever tried panfrying the tamales? One of the Mexican servers at our favorite Japanese place (I know, kinda incongruous) told us his family does this - peel off the corn husks and just brown them well on both sides in bacon fat or tallow or duck fat. They are SO GOOD that way!
Since it was cold and rainy, I broke down the turkey carcass and made soup. It hit the spot for dinner.
I'll certainly give it a try. I still have 7 dozen tamales in the freezer

Fried chicken using that one recipe which is supposed to be the KFC spices that a reporter took a photo of. Wasn't bad. Tried using a brine for the first round. I'll use buttermilk/egg for tomorrow and soak the chicken in that. Of course, I don't have a pressure fryer and don't plan on buying one. Instead, I use boneless and make sure the pieces aren't too thick.
Looks just fantastic!
