[quote:Laura Bow:MV8yMDUzMDk4XzM0NTc5MDQyXzM0Q0UwREM=] [quote:Debauchery:MV8yMDUzMDk4XzM0NTYyOTc2X0NBQkNFMjM4] Have someone else make the turkey. Thanksgiving day is not the day to try it out for the first time. I think the rest of the food, you can handle. [/quote] This may not be a bad idea, or like someone else said someone even said purchase a precooked turkey. I think they now sell some sort of "turkey in a bag" kit where you literally just take off the outer wrapper but keep it in some sort of oven bag, pop it in the oven and it self bastes. The only thing you have to worry about is pulling it out on time. I remember seeing commercials for it so Googled: http://www.jennieo.com/products/111-Oven-Ready%E2%84%A2-Whole-Turkey Oven Ready™ turkey from Jennie-O Turkey Store is the only whole turkey that goes directly from your freezer to your oven with no thawing, easy clean up, and no worries. View the easy step-by-step cooking instructions. Product Features: Gluten Free Preseasoned Comes sealed in our Fool-Proof® cooking bag With Gravy Packet (contains gluten) Dunno if something like this would be good since I never tried it, but it's out there!

Hello Friends! So..Im 24yo and This is our first Thanksgiving at our new house and im not the best cook.. and i really dont wanna screw this up.. Hell i couldnt make mashed potatos to save my life! (every time i do theyre never done for some reason!)
So for all the folks whos been there done that for many years im looking for fairly simple dishes to cook for 9 people..
Frankly I really dont even know how to cook a turkey!
LoL! Any suggestions on that one too would be most helpful.. Im not really lookin for b.s. responses like "ooohh why celebrate us murdering and stealing from the Natives.." to us this is just a family dinner.. Thanks everyone! Have a good Day/Evening/Night!
