If you could skip the standard turkey dinner for Thanksgiving, what would you have?

melissajacobs.bsky.social•96 days ago

Duck

tamethestallion.bsky.social•96 days ago

We're doing ribeye, lobster tail, and grilled wahoo

chubzburger.bsky.social•96 days ago

All appetizers and skip the actual dinner

f6pjoe.fantasysixpack.net•96 days ago

Give me some smoked brisket and pulled pork and allllll the sides.

jjwenner.bsky.social•96 days ago

We switched to prime rib for Christmas. For Thanksgiving, we do a small turkey breast and focus on sides.

Tommy Cutlets Turducken. Turkey stuffed with a duck, which is in turn stuffed with cutlets.

dhalder929.bsky.social•96 days ago

If this is not available I’d go with beef tenderloin roast, scalloped potatoes and creamed spinach.

wheelrouteff.bsky.social•96 days ago

I'm doing pizza and wings 😋

hillarypcoley.bsky.social•96 days ago

Salt encrusted red snapper this year. Prior years include buffalo, tamales, lobster, duck and everything but turkey.

fratboyamy.bsky.social•96 days ago

Lasagna

iamkarinwithani.bsky.social•96 days ago

I would keep all the sides, hold the turkey.

squincey88.bsky.social•96 days ago

Salmon is pretty good. And crab if they are ready

tonycosentino.bsky.social•96 days ago

Tri-tip

thesmokeshow.bsky.social•96 days ago

This is what we did last month (never switching back from Prime Rib again)

Always have a pastie, Yorkshire puddings, and mushy peas

That’s exactly what I would have if I could skip the standard

learnersandmakers.bsky.social•96 days ago

We've skipped it several times. One year we did a roast leg of lamb with Indian dishes. Sag paneer, dal, naan, etc. One year we were in Chiang Mai and did a Thai cooking class. This year we are in Japan and we are getting Gyoza.

oldlineangling.bsky.social•96 days ago

I never skip the green bean casserole. Nice crispy onions on top…can’t go wrong!

kenacondaleaf23.bsky.social•96 days ago

I'd go for Lamb.

karlsafchick.bsky.social•96 days ago

Before I say what I say, I'm a steak guy. That being said, I can not stand prime rib unless it's in a French dip.

jumico.bsky.social•96 days ago

I get it. Love a rare steak but the great sear and the nicely developed crust is the best part. Prime rib doesn't have that except the edges

karlsafchick.bsky.social•96 days ago

I appreciate a little fat, but prime rib seems like that's all it is.

thesmokeshow.bsky.social•96 days ago

No way brother! 🤤

karlsafchick.bsky.social•96 days ago

I'll admit, that looks pretty good. You won't talk me off my anti-horseraddish hill.

thesmokeshow.bsky.social•96 days ago

Eww, I hate horseradish, nasty ass shit 🤮 only time I ever touch that is if I make a cream out of it to dress shortrib-stuffed yorkshire puddings

4for4-john.bsky.social•96 days ago

Ohhhhh

karlsafchick.bsky.social•96 days ago

I feel like I'm being judged with that many h's.

jjwenner.bsky.social•96 days ago

By others without multiple H’s, as well.

4for4-john.bsky.social•96 days ago

Yes

4for4-john.bsky.social•96 days ago

I have had so much great prime rib that I simply can’t relate

karlsafchick.bsky.social•96 days ago

I like every other cut. Even ribeye (same cut, different preparation).

je7f.bsky.social•96 days ago

An Indian restaurant buffet would be an excellent replacement.

Wide variety of deliciousness.

And enough to cover 2 meals.

joshadhd.com•96 days ago

Smoked turkey
Pulled pork
Smoked ham
Brisket

Roasted turkey is the worst

kevinpayne.bsky.social•96 days ago

Enjoy! When just the two of us, did up scallops w/ some sides & another year crab legs etc.

gts00.bsky.social•96 days ago

I skip it every year for ham or steak. My turkey allergy has something to do with that, though.

this1sfine.bsky.social•96 days ago

Beef tri tip, roasted potatoes and green beans casserole

umket.bsky.social•96 days ago

Pizza

thedollylama.bsky.social•96 days ago

I would make Ina Garten’s perfect Roasted Chicken, roasted carrots, fennel, and sweet potato, mashed potatoes, and dinner rolls.

scotchromanian.bsky.social•96 days ago

Nailed it, friend!

jumico.bsky.social•96 days ago

A crispy pork world tour.

pffnatejahnke.bsky.social•96 days ago

We go with ham instead of turkey

petedavidsonny.bsky.social•96 days ago

My mother's doing turkey breasts. My sister is bringing a ham. I'm smoking a brisket.

It's going to be a buffet and there will be leftovers.

mrahmergamer.bsky.social•96 days ago

Brisket!

medusadyo.bsky.social•96 days ago

We did ours today because work and what bot. We had roast pork, garlic mashed taters, gravy, stuffing, savory carrots, chared brusselsprouts, Hawaiian rolls dessert was keylime pie and chocolate pudding

johnbosch.bsky.social•96 days ago

taco bar

4for4-john.bsky.social•96 days ago

johnbosch.bsky.social•96 days ago

yep
plenty of protein options
all the toppings
hard and soft shells as well as chips
different levels and flavors of queso and hot sauce

you’d have options to eat all day and still mix up the plate each time
