And I do not even think it has "Trans Fats" unless you add them!

We had Thanksgiving dinner (potluck style) last year at the home of a friend. There was a very large group of people there and 3 different people were invited to cook the main dish .. a turkey .. for the gathering. It was really kind of fun.


1. The first turkey was cooked traditionally, in the oven stuffed with cornbread stuffing, and all the trimmings. The usual yummy, yummy Thanksgiving turkey.

2. The second was a large goose, stuffed with a de-boned turkey, stuffed with a duck, stuffed with a chicken. It was good, more interesting than actually all that good. But still tasty.

3. The thrid was a deep fried turkey, cooked on the spot in the back yard, in one of those turkey deep fryers. Hmmmm .... let me try to describe this one. It really was a good show to watch and it gathered quite a crowd - off and on - to see how it was doing, as it cooked. And the final taste test was not overwhelming. I did not like the taste of it ... plus it was - too greasy.

So the overall consensus was ..... DO NOT MESS WITH TRADITIONAL THANKSGIVNG TURKEY!

i hate to be the bearer of bad news granny, but senior citizens do not qualify as "Yuppies" - that Y stands for YOUNG.

You're missing out, bud. Get on it.

Just remember: Let the turkey thaw all the way and do it as far away from the house as possible.

better yet, buy the turkey fresh, not frozen!

and do it as far away from the house as possible.

ha ha, i saw some guy on tv who tried to do it in his garage, he almost burned his house down...(dummy)

 

[Fenfox]

Been doing it for about 10 years now. Yummmmm

Though has anyone else noticed an already cooked rotessirie in the supermarket is cheaper the a uncooked one?

 

[strollingbones]

turduckeen....traditional made with small birds up to the turkey...out of new orleans

 

[strollingbones]

deep fat fryers for turkeys can be rather dangerous....i use a clay cooker...for roasting.

I've tried it - delicious, juicy chicken

 

[PoliticalChic]

This is better than rotisserie chicken. I've got the one that grills two chickens at once.

Has anyone used a variation of the traditional?

 

[AllForOne]

yum. i need to try this.

Amazingly enough, it tastes like...chicken.
