I like to cook on Thanksgiving, it gives me something to do instead of just sitting around bored lol.
I have some Mexican friends who are like family so my kid and I are going to their house and I'm cooking most of the dinner:
15 pound turkey, allegedly pre-brined. I'm trying something new this year and cooking it in a food-grade plastic bag. I'm hoping the experiment will work this year.
Ham
Pork tamales (store bought)
Mashed potatoes
Corn bread
Stuffing - by request - I wasn't going to make it because my friends mostly don't care for it. I made it one year, no one knew what it was and they barely touched it. One guy dumped a bunch of hot sauce on it before eating, ugh.
Pumpkin pie
Mississippi Mud Bars - a chocolate-y brownie type thing (secret recipe)
Word on the street is that everyone wants to do a white elephant gift exchange, slightly weird for Thanksgiving but I'll do it.
Dinner's at 3, see you then!
