These help if you want to spatchcock a turkey.

We're going a more traditional route with a half a turkey, sweet potato and green bean casseroles plus a cornbread oyster/sausage dressing.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Looking forward to seeing some meal photos.

I love the food at Thanksgiving, and only make the stuff once a year. Roasted brined turkey, mashed taters with some sour cream mixed in, gravy with lots of herbs (hold the offal, please), cornbread stuffing, corn casserole, cranberry relish and pumpkin pie. Baby brother is doing the turkey and gravy this year, (for us and 8 other families), daughter will do the pie. I’ll make tiramisu for her to take home. Love it all! 

I buy a ham for the office Christmas party each year and do glaze for that. I get the bone at the end, and that goes into bean soup. Looking forward to that too.

Save them turkey livers for me.  Either in the gravy or just on my plate.

Never cared for the taste of liver. Mom always put giblets in the gravy, but they were easy to pick out. I think she made liver and onions one time, but we kids staged a revolt and it was never made or even mentioned again.

I have a puppy that is going to have a great day tomorrow with that bone.

I do toss the gizzard and heart into the gravy in very fine dice. Neck & back meat go into the dressing. The dog gets the liver. Love some pasta with chicken livers, just not enough liver and busy. It does not work well in the gravy stock.

I've done the offal cooked and blended into the gravy or removed after they flavored the gravy.

None of that this year since we are cooking the remianing half of Livie's turkey.
