This reminds of the year I inadvertently roasted the turkey upside-down, not realizing that it is a legit technique.
Last-minute Thanksgiving this year at our vacation house in RI. Mom and dad, who live down the street from our place in RI, are getting eye surgeries on Tuesday so my brother and his family are driving up from Westchester County and we are gathering in RI so mom and dad can recuperate at home. We decided to order Thanksgiving dinner this year from a local BBQ place, Blue Ribbon BBQ and will drive that down Wed evening. Not the most well-regarded place but B made an executive decision to do whatever is easy. Plus, we happened to meet the owner’s sister and BIL while we were vacationing in Puerto Rico this year, so we feel happy to support a good guy and his business (we get a big takeout order every few months to share with friends). There’s a whole smoked turkey (hopefully not too smoky), mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, green beans. Other stuff that I don’t know. Pies have been ordered from a local favorite organization, where not only can you order pies for yourself, you can also order pies for clients.
