Thanksgiving is over....

[Gren the cake]

christmas is here!! BUYing a tree this weekend!

mUHAHAHHAHAAHAA!! :D :D. im so excited.

[I_Still_Know!]

We don't have Thanksgiving here. I kinda wish we did... sounds like fun. I also want to roast a turkey...they look massive... and tasty.

This next month is going to be a ball!! Party's and\or get togethers every weekend, Summer is only a couple of days away and people generally tend to be in a better mood around Christmas and New Years... I love it.

[ShankS]

I dont like big fat dry turkeys... you sit there chewing it all christmas day afternoon, and drink about 2 botttles of wine trying to wash it down... much prefer a nice moist chicken.

[I_Still_Know!]

Are they dry ShankS?? I have only seen them in movies and they always look sooo good. I guess I shouldn't be relying on the movies for an accurate representation of what a Turkey should look like. :rollseyes:

Thats what we have on Christmas Day - Roast Chicken. Some times Roast Pork...or maybe a leg of lamb. Always with a leg of ham. Mmmm...ham!

Sometimes its will be just a seafood feast. They are a rarity, but always good on a hot Christmas day.

[Haphazard]

Fuck Christmas!

:cool:

sage & onion or cranberry & wallnut stuffing?

which one tates better with your head stuffed.

[The STE]

bread-based stuffing

yeah, but it has flavourings and ingredients added.... no good getting a sweaty head up the ass, if it's just bread.

[The STE]

well, it's closer to the sage n' onion than the other

[urgeok]

seriously if its done right a turkey wont be dry .. but its not easy to do. I've had some pretty moist turkeys (and before the jokes fly, no - i didnt do the 'basting' myself)

if you want the best turky you'll ever taste .. try it on the bbq if you have a bigger grill with a rotisserie ..

its unbelievable ... you wouldnt need wine to wash that baby down ... I'd hate to see you using up all that beer space :)

[The STE]

best idea ever: take the mashed potatoes, the gravy, and the turkey and mix them all together, like in a bowl, and eat. It's friggen great

[urgeok]

takes too long, put it all in a blender and drink it with a straw !

we do cook it properly, actually take it out slightly earlier than the other roast stuff, and let it finish off cooking under it's own heat. in the hope it wont be as dry.

dont worry about beer space... I make exceptions at christmas, since people bring wine.

deep frying the turkey works great too, or so i've heard. i haven't tried it yet though, seems like too much of a hassle. plus all that deep fryage... i could just head over to KFC and get the same thing heh

and phhff beer space > turkey space heh ;p

[urgeok]

deep frying is supposed to be good but several people have beed admitted to the hospital in the attempt.

You need to boil an amount of oil big enough for a turkey .. like a drum ...

its like begging to be badly burned ..

[Rotting Eye]

oh i know. i'm guessing more than several people at that :P i mean you're only dealing with several gallons of hot oil... there's no chance something could go wrong!! heh

i've seen big fryers like that on sale at stores, but they're like $80 or so i think, then for all the oil, which just goes to waste after you fry the turkey anyway... eh. what's the point. maybe someday. plus to only be able to bust it out what? maybe twice a year? i dunno.

i like your idea though, unfortunately don't have a grill that large heh

[jay o2 waster]

thanksgiving is one of my least favorite holidays, so im not sad to se it go

[Death By Jell-O]

Deep fried turkey is great....Real tender and juicy.....and there's something about cooking a turkey in half an hour over a giant open flame.........

[Gren the cake]

my family always makes big ass prime rib roasts for thanksgiving, xmas, news years.. whatever

i dont think weve ever made a turkey. tradition whatever but that shit b dry

not that i know anything of it, havent had meat in 3 1/2 yearss. although the whole fried turkey thing looks like a good idea

but tooooo much fo a fuckin hassle

so. i guess, if i ate meat, id stick with the prime rib ;) WOOT!

[Death By Jell-O]

Prime Rib rules......Mmmm.....Prime rib, horseraddish, and au jus.....Doesn't get much better than that......

you cant deep fry a fuckin turkey... thats stupid lol, the outside would overcook before the inside gets done properly.

You can deep fry a turkey, I've seen it done.......Technically a "deep Fried" turkey is cooked in a big pressure cooker over a big, open, gas flame....Similar way they cook deep fried chicken in restaurants......

I wouldnt eat it, after it's been wallowing in fat for half an hour or longer. I bet when it's winched out the cooker it looks like the back end of a fat assed sumo wrestler.

[FairyKorpes]

My fav is turkey the day after. Making hot turkey sandwiches with gravy with the potatoes in the sandwich, gawd yum.

[Death By Jell-O]

My turkey soup is cooking as I type this......can't wait for it to get done.....Easiest way to dispose of a leftover turkey........

[urgeok]

i found a really fast way of getting rid of a old turkey carcas is to toss it into the back of a passing pickup truck.

yeah I make sandwiches too the next day with the leftovers. Another one I like is mince up the turkey with the stuffing and sausage meat and a bit of cranberry sauce, then add some fresh mayonaise and chuck it in some thick bread with letuice.... delish :)

I just chuck the carcas's over the garden fence and let the nextdoor neighbours aligators finish them off.
