    Everybody should put some money back and buy a decent sized prime rib (not Choice or Select, USDA Prime) for Thanksgiving or Christmas.

    I spent a shitload of money on a prime rib once. Literally cooked and served itself. I became the family patriarch and anointed with the title of “Big Daddy” immediately after that. Pro tip: Save the rib bones with some meat on them and eat with your menfolk with holiday drink of your choice. Hair sprouted from my son’s face, chest and balls.

      This isn’t a bad take.

      Turkey takes a lot of work, I mean A LOT of work, and at the end of four (or more ) hours, the end result is turkey.

      If you’ve got a small family, or are trying to mix things up this year. Buy some steaks, or prime rib. Make something you haven’t been able to justify because it’s a bit of work or pricey.

    This is all fine and good, but the canned cranberry sauce debate needs to die yesterday. It’s a reminder of when I didn’t know how to cook as a youngin and had bad taste in a lot of things.

    Making cranberry sauce from scratch, hearing them pop, getting a balance of sweet/tart, and adding juuuust enough bourbon to get the flavor is an amazing experience that everyone should enjoy on their plates. I don’t want to show off, I want to make your plate that much better, especially since my dad will magically manage to serve us dry ass, tasteless turkey again.

      Please do. Whatever recipe you use, add extra of all the spices.

    You’re supposed to have rice at Thanksgiving; with beans. Pigeon peas or little red beans are acceptable, coconut milk is a must. Who has time to mash potatoes when there’s macaroni to be made?

      Y’all keep sleeping on mashed potatoes, so clearly you’ve never had mine. Boil them down in chicken broth, season them up (milk, butter, salt, pepper, garlic, fresh herbs), then bake it until it’s nice and golden brown on top. My mashed potatoes yield marriage proposals.

      It’s not that I don’t like mashed potatoes; it’s just not something we eat at Thanksgiving. Plus, I don’t think it goes with plantain.

    I’m gonna let you finish your list, but first we need to talk about the horrible numbering. When there’s a tie at 2, the following number is 4 (as long as it’s a two-way tie of course). You can’t be in 3rd place with 3 things ranked above you...that’s 4th place!

    Dressing is horrible and a waste of food. Every other ingredient that is in dressing is far superior to this congealed mass of whatever it is.

    I also don’t like when food mixes or is mixed like that. Potato and chicken/tuna salads are disgusting for the exact same reasons.

    Real #1 is the thanksgiving sandwich made the day after. @ me if you will, perish if you want

     I don’t understand why there’s a pineapple on [ham], either.

    Cause pineapple has enzymes in it that tenderizes the ham, even while cold.
