Thanksgiving is over....
christmas is here!! BUYing a tree this weekend!
mUHAHAHHAHAAHAA!! :D :D. im so excited. |
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. |
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.
|
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. |
Fuck Christmas!
:cool: |

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

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 :) |
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
|
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. |
ah, the leftover-shake...good times

and phhff beer space > turkey space heh ;p |
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 .. |
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 |
thanksgiving is one of my least favorite holidays, so im not sad to se it go
|
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.........
|
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! |
Prime Rib rules......Mmmm.....Prime rib, horseraddish, and au jus.....Doesn't get much better than that......

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