Smoked beef(TBD), vanilla bean whipped sweet potatoes, stuffed peppers(working on the recipe), other TBD veggie.

Collaborative effort for the meal so details still being worked out.

Much craft beer and bourbon will flow.

 

see, I'd love to do a prime rib, but one of my dang sisters does't want that.  That vanilla bean whipped sweet potato thing sounds very good, haven't heard of that before.

Today I am brining our 15lb bird. Brand new roasting pan to bake that bad boy tomorrow. 

My scalloped potatoes are legendary in my family.

Along with my scratch made green bean casserole. I even fry my own onion strips. 

Sweet potato casserole and pecan pie made by my wife. 

Other trimmings and fixings I don’t know about yet. 

My favorite holiday!

not that anyone needs another recipe to try for Thanksgiving, but ran across this one years ago and really liked it....easy too.

asparagus casserolle

I never added the water chestnuts, but the toasted buttered bread is essential for texture and flavor.

 

2 cans asparagus "drained"

1 large can Lesuer English Peas "do not drain"

1 10 oz can cream of mushroom soup

1 can water chestnuts

1 stick butter

4 slices white bread. Trim off edges and cut into strips "3 strips per slice"

1/2 lb shreaded cheese "2 cups"  (I always used cheddar)

Grease a 9x13 dish. Layer asparagus over the bottom of the dish. Mix peas and mushroom soup and pour over asparagus. Layer water chestnuts over mixture. Top with cheese.

Dredge strips of bread on both sides in melted butter. Lay bread on top of cheese and bake at 350 deg for 40 min.

We're having turkey, turkey, turkey!  3 turkeys!  I hate turkey!  I love the dressing.  I've asked for prime rib for Thanksgiving and Christmas for my 49 years of marriage and still haven't gotten.

I'll eat turkey and enjoy it.  Scotch after the meal.

Bye the way, why 3 turkeys, we're having 26 people at my house.  Hopefully kungoodude will invite me to his house.

Dry rubbed turkey, start with breast side down on a bed of carrots, celery, onion and Granny Smith apple, then flip bird to breast up, 375 for 30 minutes to brown the top.  Use the aromatics, white wine and pan drippings to make a killer gravy.

Sour cream rustic mashed potatoes, peas, sausage and apple cornbread stuffing.  LOTS of butter in everything.  

Chilled apple cider.  Chocolate pecan, pumpkin and apple pies with scoops of vanilla ice cream.

Pass out later.

Turkey at Thanksgiving but standing rib roast Christmas Eve.  Horse radish and sour cream mash potatoes.  Yumm.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
