Are you just dry rubbing that turkey?

Super simple just a dry rub, a little brown sugar, sea salt, and thyme applied 24 hours before baking.

I did a soak bath on mine. It's in the fridge now until tomorrow morning. 

Every year I debate on the whole brine thing. My mom never does it. her turkey always comes out solid as fuck.

I've been following the Alton Brown Turkey recipe for the last few years and its worked out pretty well.

This is literally our first Thanksgiving in a minute where we didn't have either vegans, or lactose & gluten intolerant guests. Going super traditional this year just because we can.

 

Just checked out the Alton Brown IG, def looks like he's got poultry on lock. I'd say if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Did the pumpkin pie and fresh apple sauce last night.

Father-In-law and sister-in-law are about to arrive. we'll do normal dinner tonight and thanksgiving for lunch tomorrow.

 

I dont really care too much about the thanksgiving spread. I'm more about the left over turkey sandwiches...thats my jam.

 

Truth right here, it's all about the leftovers which is why I like hosting.

I added the can of drained kidney beans..... I was like this close || to asking if anyone wanted to argue about whether or not beans should be in chili lol.  I knew a guy that would like fight to the death about how chili shouldn't have beans in it.  @LUGR

Actually kinda proud of this one. It’s not much for looks but chocolate Chess Pie is one of my favorites to make as a gift. It’s simple and tastes awesome. Problem is that the tops normally crack and takes away a lot of the appeal. I don’t make them often so it’s a common problem when I do. Today I nailed it after making a couple of temperature adjustments.

Roasted a duck earlier in the week.  Going to boil down the carcass for broth for noodle soup. Didn't take pix so didn't happen.

Just made this: distillate of fermented sugar cane X carbonated Kola flavored water.

I don't know if this is getting the props it deserves, people probably aren't reading the caption.

 

Never had a home made cola, this would be the only soda I'd be interested in drinking ever.
