(187,707 posts)Getting out of these khakis and bottom down. Going straight to stretchy house pants and sweatshirt. Lots of naps I think.

(5,782 posts)It's the only casserole I care about.
Don't know if the cooks will include it this year, as they bailed on making it last time.

(3,324 posts)My wife injects our turkey with duck fat and apple cider and then cooks it via sous vide so it's fall-apart-in-your-mouth tender. Her family's stuffing recipe is beyond amazing and includes Mt. Sico (Newfoundland) savory. It's far, far better than my family's stuffing recipe.
The benefits of being married to a chef!

(8,604 posts)I make a pretty good turkey. I follow Gordon Ramsays method and it makes a great bird. But I make a stuffing with chestnuts that I learned from my Mom and its awesome.
I don't have a sous vide but I am curious. How long does one sous vide a turkey? I gotta think it's about a day.

(3,324 posts)It'll depend a bit on the size of the bird and how you like your turkey.
You can get a sous vide cooker for around $100-$250 if you shop around or wait for a sale. The first one my wife used was the post-style one made by Anova, it's around that price point.
It's worth every penny. My brother-in-law splurged and ordered five of the real deal Kobe beef steaks a couple years ago and my wife used the sous vide machine. It was heavenly for all involved but for her, as a chef, it was a religious experience.

(1,682 posts)Fresh green beans cooked and seasoned are delicious. Nothing wrong with the green bean casserole, I eat that too, but it's unnecessary. Just fresh green beans cooked properly.

(10,786 posts)I make the simple kind - just boil cranberries with sugar. Since nobody eats much of it, I have plenty of leftovers to make cranberry muffins (use a recipe for blueberry muffins, substitute cranberries and omit the sugar, since there's already enough. Freeze in 1-2 portion quantities for the winter months)

(5,782 posts)Turkey, Macaroni and Cheese, Green Beans (not casserole), Dressing, Sweet Potatoes, and Dinner Rolls to round out the meal.

(6,787 posts)....and I mean a lot of garlic. I boil the garlic with the potatoes and mash it all together. No vampire is ever going to come near me for a week.

(1,765 posts)Mashed sweet potato casserole with pecans and orange cranberry sauce. Its not Thanksgiving without those two classics (for us at least). BTW, I made mashed potatoes this year with baked Idaho potatoes (scooped out), not boiled Yukon Golds, and they were truly excellent. Love Thanksgiving foods.
