Sausage Dressing / stuffing / filling. it wasn't in the bird. Spoon bread / corn casserole. Turkey Cucumber salad Williamsburg salad. Not pictured was all the drinks and Pumpkin Pie.

I say this every year, that you put in about 2 days of prepping / cooking for this meal, and your finished eating it in about 45 minutes, maybe less excluding the desert. But it still is my favorite holiday.

Doing my turkey 2 days late. Started out in a wet brine for 24hours with just kosher salt and sugar. My son made a spice rub to coat the turkey,and the same rub will be used later on to make a compound butter,which will be used to coat the turkey before it’s wrapped. Hope to wrap at about 135 degrees. Started off at 44 degrees. Big chunk of Apple wood for the smoke and,as always bourbon in the drip pan.

Apologies to any Indians and/or Italians who may see this.
Made Bombay Potatoes this evening (pretty traditional method), but had a load of focaccia dough in the fridge that needed using, so I melted some ghee and brushed it with that instead of olive oil, than used garlic powder and cumin seeds on it. Focaccina’an?
It was super tasty with the sauce on the potatoes.

Here comes the best part of doing a prime rib roast: leftover steak sandwiches au jus. Pink peppercorn / horseradish sauce, caramelized onion, Swiss cheese. Jus made from the bones and trimmings.
