    • Lately I have seen people try to argue that mac n cheese is a Thanksgiving food.

      I'm not sure what is going on there.

        I don't eat either, but I do like a good cranberry salad.

            It's a southern thing

            Weirdly, I expect a lot of folks down here wouldn't consider Jell-o a Thanksgiving food!

            • I think there are only 4 true Thanksgiving foods: Turkey, mashed potatoes, rolls, and stuffing. Gravy is a garnish. Everything else is up for debate.
              Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                    Who cares? Cranberry sauce is gross anyways. Keep that off my turkey thank you very much.

But all I wanted was 1-2 breasts to sous vide, so we went to Smiths and they had bone-in turkey breasts (2) for $4/lb - $27 total. Entire turkey was $3/lb - $30 for a small turkey. Went back to Costco and bought and entire large turkey for $1/lb!
                              Winco does a promotion in which you get a free turkey if you spend $100+ on other groceries. So that's what I did.

                              I've got several local family members joining us. In the past that could easily mean 30-50 people. This year it will only be around 15.

                              I'm smoking the turkey, either spatchcocked or broken down into parts - haven't decided yet. I'll make that call tomorrow when I pull it out of the refrigerator to salt it.

                              We're also making stuffing, a green bean casserole, and a dessert - probably either millionaire shortbread (recipe from America's Test Kitchen) or ultimate brownies (recipe from my sister).

                              I picked up a bag of cranberries, but I'm not sure what we're going to do with them. Sounds like I shouldn't try to make a homemade cranberry sauce.

                              Other family members are bringing:
                              • Mashed potatoes and gravy
                              • Pumpkin spice cheesecake
                              • Homemade crescent rolls
                              • Raspberry Jello salad
                              • Candied yams
                              • Costco pies (pecan, apple, and/or pumpkin)
                              • Other unspecified dessert(s)
