Maybe it's a southern thing? But growing up the idea of having a Thanksgiving without mac and cheese would have been the ravings of a mad man.
I have never had mac and cheese for thanksgiving, ever.
Turkey, ham, stuffing, cranberry sauce, perogies, kielbasa, cabbage rolls, salad, vegetables, that's the standards for my family. Though... we're Ukrainian-Canadian, so that may explain some things
Oh, and mashed potatoes, too.
my family does mac and cheese, mostly just due to popular demand
this year I'm doing a nice baked mac and cheese instead of buying the usually bowls of bob evans mac from the grocery store

I have a truly amazing recipe for mac and cheese. The box stuff is garbage though.
There's also a craft brewpub here in Singapore that has a mac and cheese with egg yolk and char siew that I would literally fight someone over.

made the mistake of eating like a jerk yesterday, while staying up to read.
Body has been in complete rebellion today.
I should probably skip the 5 hour trip for thanksgiving tomorrow.

Oh, god. I don't want to drive four hours in the rain starting midafternoon. Didn't I hear that we were supposed to be getting a hyperloop between Amarillo and OKC? Is that up and running yet?
Oh my god I completely forgot the stuffing recipe I use is a web of deceit
It says 30 minutes of active prep which is a LIE. It’s at least 90 minutes. It advises roasting 2 pounds of mushrooms at 500 degrees until they’re dry for 20 minutes which is also a LIE. There is no dimension where you can sweat that many mushrooms that fast. You blend shallots and herbs and butter together to season bread cubes, which releases a cloud of onion-eye-hurting juice when you open the blender
It produces a really, really good dish but goddamn the recipe SUCKS
We've made so much great food for Thanksgiving at our friend's place with high quality frito pie, home made cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, and a Nantucket cranberry pie. Meanwhile they're smoking a turkey and going all in on top notch mashed potatoes and stuffing.
Of course, I've been sick since yesterday and won't be able to go. So I'm sending a picture of myself taped to a popsicle stick for the kids and my wife's bringing back a plate and a couple tupperware tubs full of food.

Cauliflower is the fucking urvegetable, and I should put it in more things.
Edit: slapdashed two kinda of mashed potatoes (with the slightly undercooked chunks in ‘em like I like) and did the cranberry sauce and took the turkey out of the fridge because the damn thing steadfastly refuses to thaw and I need it thawed by tomorrow so I can brine the motherfucker. Only the stuffing and creamed corn remain, plus a last minute pumpkin soup I decided to use the remaining pumpkins from the pumpkin pie for. Stuffing will be Sunday after the turkey, corn, soup on Saturday plus gonna grab a Costco salad and a few other things.
My turkey just needs to rest now. Must be patient.

Getting texts from the family suggesting that I was supposed to be there for lunch today.
Motherfuckers, scroll up like ten messages and you will see that we all agreed that Thanksgiving was tomorrow. We didn't even know whether Amarillo was going to be an icy hell or not until about an hour ago, I will be there for dinner with fresh bread and you will like it.

Just put my turkey in the smoker about 45 minutes ago. It is a perfect day for smoking, cool, wind free and sunny. I just got a Thermoworks Dot, a single leave in probe. I'm excited not to have to check the turkey, just watch the temperature rise until it's spot on.
Next year though I'm getting a Signals (4 probes) and a billows attachment, which automatically regulates airflow for precise temperature management. God I love smoking food.

Wait. That's not helping, is it?
Exactly.

Red wine.
I do dry brine, but I would not be above tossing it in a bucketful of white wine.
What would it take to get said recipes?
Turkey on the grill it is!

Th-hee--Thanksgiving is c-haehee-CANCELLED, everyone!!
I'm sorry! It's cancelled thisyear

GOTTCHA HAPPY PRANKSGIVING EVERYONE
Fortunately it tastes amazing
Sadly it will be doled out in shapeless piles instead of beautiful squares
The labby is surrounded by snacks and toys in the far back of the outback
I have had a very serious conversation with him that I expect it all to arrive at the cabin intact
He seemed to understand
As a shapeless pile I take offense.

Having two is one of the best things in the world when you're cooking for a lot of people.
The stuffing this year is a recipe she found made with cauliflower and holy fuck it is good.

Right
Nantucket cranberry pie? I am most curious.
Also, cauliflower stuffing?
Recipe please!
