@doemasters , don't have the recipe but our son is preparing the turkey this year and has an unique method he wants to try. Remove the backbone, spatchcooking I think, and lay the bird flat in a buttermilk and salt mixture for 48 hours prior to roasting. He plans on flipping the bird over after 12 hours and repeat until time to cook Thursday morning. Sounds interesting.

 

[It Takes Eleven]

Roast turkey, cornbread dressing, blackeyed peas, slaw and deviled eggs for starters.

Turkey
Dressing
Vegetable casserole
Green bean casserole
Potato salad
Apple pie

Possibly a couple other things, can't remember

 

[rocknthefreeworld]

Turkey
Dressing (Sausage and Vegetarian)
Mac and Cheese
Broccoli Casserole
Mashed potatoes
Gravy
Rolls
Some kind of dessert

Gonna be a little different this year. I usually make the cornbread and my wife makes a loaf of challah for the stuffing but her mom has surgery tomorrow and she won't have time to make the bread. So I'll make cornbread but have to buy a loaf of bread to make the stuffing. Also going to swap out the usually Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage for some actual smoked sausage cut into smaller pieces.

I hope your Maw-in-law's surgery goes well.

That last thing sounds like a version of Death by Chocolate. My wife makes it with brownies, couple of different types of candy cut up, chocolate mousse, and cool whip.

I'm a huge fan of Thanksgiving food, and remind those that say Thanksgiving food is overrated or no good, only say that to either get attention or because they didn't have a mother or grandmother that could cook worth a damn... BUT... cranberry and pumpkin pie are both awful and unfit for human consumption and I'll die on that hill.

One benefit of COVID related restrictions was/is not being inundated with "pumpkin this" and "pumpkin that."

Hashbrown casserole

That I've never had. I can't say I've heard of it before today. A definite must do though...

There's a lot of variations, like any casserole I guess. The one my wife does is somewhat similar to the one Cracker Barrel has on their menu.

I've noticed a half of a dozen (more) recipes through a quick google search...looks like a fun dish to play around with.
