Turkey Dinner! - GoFuckYourself.com

Elli · 10-11-2009, 01:43 PM

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to my fellow Canucks and happy Columbus Day weekend to my friends down south

I have a question for GFY:

What makes a turkey dinner a proper turkey dinner? Sweet potato casserole? Gravy? Brussels sprouts? Any favourite recipes to share?

For me I love my mashy spuds. Half red and half white or golden nugget potatoes: boiled, then mixed up with sauteed garlic, butter, diced yellow onion, salt, pepper, thyme and cream. YUM.

Sausage rice! Sounds delish! What's in it?

Family tradition ... we always watch the old porn movie where Ron Jeremy fucks a turkey before it's put in the oven.

Green bean casserole, as long as that is there, I'm happy.

Good question. I'm not really sure, my stepmom always makes it. Would you like me to get the recipe? It is amazing.

istanboys · 10-11-2009, 03:52 PM

Ah so it's not a dinner in Turkey.. I guess I'm too focussed on my niche hehe (see sig)

Bon apetit!

I couldn't get any good Brussels sprouts, they looked like shit. Oh well, green beans instead because they were fresh.

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to my friends in the north.

Every year we have... turkey and dressing with giblet gravy (gravy also has liver, hearts and the full neck), deviled eggs, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, greens (either turnip, mustard or collard), mashed potatoes, squash, black eyed peas, cabbage, rolls and pumpkin pie.

Damn that make me hungry just thinking about it. No wonder I gain 5 pounds during the holidays.

After Shock Media · 10-11-2009, 05:51 PM

Properly brined and seasoned turkey, can not stand a messed up and yes about to maybe start an argument can not stand a fried turkey for that day.

Cranberries are a must, can not be from the can, has to have a touch of orange to it with some spice - not to sweet and plenty of tart left.

A very good gravy, though since we brine the turkey it is not made from its drippings (ends up salty) - we make it from roasted veggies, and some extra turkey parts. Typically besides the turkey neck, we pick up some additional feet, necks, or wings. Just the flavors from this, some broth, some wine, and a bit of a roux.

Dressing cooked on the side. Can not stand it cooked inside of a turkey and well thats not neither safe nor smart as it extends the cooking times of the bird. Since it is cooked in separate dishes we typically have a few types. Some are fond of the oyster stuffing, some like the wild rice and sausage dressing, I like a good bread stuffing with turkey livers added. Slightly crunchy on the outside but creamy on the inside.

Mashed spuds are a must. I never boil potatoes for that though. Gives the potato to much water content. So I always steam the potatoes, slip the skins off if needed, and then use a ricer. Used to use a food mill but that sometimes messed up certain potato types. Often I will add some roasted garlic to the potatoes before I throw them into the ricer. Plenty or real butter and mood depending either half n half or cream.

Salted fingerling potatoes. Not sure how they ended up on the table but they did. These are baby potatoes that are cooked in literally a shitload of salted water. I do mean very salted too. Typically with pickling salt to boot. They are taken out and set covered for a bit. You just end up with these small potatoes almost covered in a thin shell of salt. It is crazy good despite how it may sound.

Sweet potato casserole. Not my favorite, I could do without it - yet it must be served. Sweet potatoes cooked up in a sugary solution. Then placed in a casserole dish, spotted with butter and more brown sugar, then topped with marshmallows and roasted.

Acorn or other type of squash, simply roasted. Bit of brown sugar, butter, and perhaps some nutmeg.

Brussel sprouts two ways. One is just steamed until done, served with butter or cheese sauce. Second is having all of the leaves removed, then they are sauteed with bacon and onion. Occasionally instead of steaming sometimes they get roasted but that typically upsets someone. So if you roast some you better steam some.

Roasted cauliflower, again served as is with butter or with cheese sauce.

There will always be some pumpkin pie, pecan pie, apple cider, and plenty of appetizers and snacks. However the one dessert that stands out is the individual apple wraps. They are a whole skinned and cored apple, seasoned and then wrapped in puff pastry and baked. Served with home made vanilla ice cream or just whipped cream.

You may tell there are really no out of season veggies nor things. So we never have green beans which thankfully means no green bean casserole (yippee).

App wise the must haves are just deviled eggs, something we call george dip, at least one type of antipasto tray, always some homemade olives, a cheese tray, perhaps a few salsas, assorted chips, plenty of nuts typically from a relatives tree's, always at least a couple sticks of homemade salumi of some sort.

It is a slight cultural mix. Aside from the mutt American "traditional", we have some German influence, plenty of Spanish/Mediterranean, English, some Italian, and now even some Arabic.

Well a lot of people don't add everything but it makes it so much better. Once a year gravy like that is good stuff.

Always thought that was pretty common. Perhaps regional or something.

I don't puree/blend the giblets into the gravy, but I definitely use them to make the gravy base. I take them out of the bird and throw them in a pot when the bird first goes in the oven. Cover the bits with water and leave it simmering until the bird comes out, adding water as neccessary. Add drippings and roasted veggies to pot to simmer a little more, then remove all the chunks and put them in the dog dish.

Then thicken with a bit of flour. Salt and season and voila, perfect gravy!

I know people who blend or dice the giblets right into the gravy, but I take mine out.

Yes it does, moms won't cook like that for me any other day... And I'm to lazy to do it myself.

Thanksgiving isn't the same without the sweet potatoes / candied yams
