What are you roasting for Thanksgiving?
We're having hydra.
Seriously, I bought three turkeys this year. Two from Trader Joe's, 12# ones: one for us, and one for MIL/SIL, we're bringing them over a full meal. One cheapie from Costco, the one portrayed: the breast was removed and frozen, the rest, along with the necks from the two TJ's ones, were used to make the gravy base. I usually use whatever chicken parts are cheapest at the supermarket, but they've been out of chicken for a few days so I just got a whole cheap turkey and used that.
I would have done roast chickens for all, but Linnea looks forward to a turkey drumstick, so I decided to go with the smallest turkeys I could find.
Desperately trying to drum up some enthusiasm for the holiday. The only good things are that I don't have to see my sister-in-law and I'm trying two new dessert recipes. I'll post them if they're any good.
