I am a little confused about the Black Thanksgiving meal. I always knew there were different sides for sure. Most famously classic mac-n-cheese and some greens or something. But I always assumed that was aside a bird still. So is there really no turkey at all?

There's almost always turkey, but different sides, vegetables and desserts. And usually no appetizers.

My aunt is hosting something at noonish tomorrow. It's a first for them, I'll be doing me that early.

Fresh Polish sausage has always been a staple on my wife’s side. Good stuff but man does it smell up the fridge before hand.

Just finished preparing the dishes.
Sweet potato crisp
Homemade cranberry sauce - Did a triple recipe because my kids are always pissed that there arent leftovers.
Green bean casserole from scratch
Cape Cod Corn Pudding
Corn, cream cheese, and jalapeno dish modified slightly from Golden Jets 2020 thread
Dressing
Mashed potatoes
Apple Pie
I cheated and got pumpkin pies from Costco this year. $6.99 for the giant pie. I dont care what you do pumpkin tastes like pumpkin and I cant make if for that price.

It was kind of nice this year. My oldest (a HS senior) helped and we talked about his future. Boy it must really suck to think you have to please and impress 8 different people.

Turkey is going in the nesco early in the AM. I would really love a wall oven at some point to fit everything. Can never have enough oven space. Pretty exited about everything but the dressing. I need a killer recipe for that. Everything else seems to work very well.
Smoking a turkey for extras and plan on smoking a turkey for some rivalry football on Friday.

What's everybody's day before thanksgiving meal? I think we are going to order BBQ.

Went to Fogo de Chao last night with a couple of relatives from the other side of the family. Surprisingly busy. I managed to pace myself and not overindulge.
