What's for Thanksgiving?

[Johnsfolly]

Venison was fork tender. Made a gravy with the braising liquid and browned mixed mushrooms. Served with roasted brussel sprouts with balsamic and bacon and a favorite, green bean casserole.

Dessert was pumpkin, cream cheese, and pecan bars. Topped with cream cheese and whipped topping layer.

Brisket done in the oven with apple cider, then on the grill with a honey/soy sauce glaze for a bit to get the outside right. Sliced this up and sent delivered to relatives and friends yesterday.

Roasted turkey breast, cornbread dressing, corn casserole, mashed taters and gravy today. 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We sure had a nice one here. 

Looks great Ness.

I looked for this thread and I’m a little surprised we haven’t done this since 2000, back in the depths of Covid.

I always enjoy @rps twist on things and hope he’ll chime in. And then there’s the @BilletHead take which is always interesting.

I told someone our Thanksgiving will be an awful lot like it was in 1970. My tiny little baby brother will roast a turkey and make gravy. It will be excellent because he’s a great chef. His wife, who is also a talented cook, will come up with a unique side or dessert. It’s different every year but will be very good.

Kathy and I are doing a cider and onion braised brisket. It’s got a delicious sauce of cider, onions, rosemary and good old beef fat blended. Green bean casserole, cornbread stuffing, corn casserole and ho’made cranberry sauce. 

Three pies are coming. A realtor friend of mine gives us a pie every year. Not because he hopes we’ll move, but because he loves us. 😀 Kathy did pumpkin. We’ll have a couple more I’m sure.

Anyhoo, tell us what’s on your menu!

And—take a minute or 30 to think about things you have to be thankful for.
