    Parents used to reserve a 30 pound bird for $80 each Thanksgiving. Organic birds are apparently raised on gold feed.
    (I googled "16lb turkey." Target was selling a Butterball for $35. That guy nailed it.)

    That's actually a very expensive Turkey, but New York tends to be an expensive place. I thought you were laughing at Dan because he went a bit too high. Our store sells them for $0.98 per pound. Which tends to be the norm. Thank you for your Thanksgiving special. I'm so grateful for all the work you and your crew put into it. You guys are amazing. Always enjoy it.🙂

      I have multiple grocery store ads in my house right now that list $0.78-$0.85 a pound. Obviously not for a super high quality bird like in the video, but over $100 for a turkey was shocking to me.

    As a Canadian, I love USTG. We’ve been celebrating it as a “Friends-giving” for about 15 years. We get the obligatory family one out of the way for Canadian TG then have the full fun day of celebration on USTG with all the friends who wouldn’t otherwise be able to attend due to their own family obligations. Plus, we get to go all out on what would normally be an ordinary dreary Thursday in November here. For the past 3 years we’ve used your entire menu. Thanks for sharing!

      Here in New Mexico, we put red chile on our mashed potatoes. Like the same way your make red chile for tamales, but no meat, the pour it over instead of gravy. I know y’all dry all kinds of chiles and make sauces from them as well, so thought I’d share this tip from just over the border with you. We use New Mexico chile mostly, but I throw arbol and guajillo in my red chile sauce, too. 😋

    The Special you did for 2023 is much less stressful bc you did less than half this amount of cooking! It’s not bc you l feel more grounded” or “organized.” It’s bc you scaled back to a dinner that was more manageable!
    Don’t worry! People love the stress & panic bc they all can relate if they ever hosted a large, important meal.

    Loved this (and YOU!) sooooo much. Thanks for doing this far enough in advance of Thanksgiving to get us all mentally ready for the big cook. Your chunky, crispy stuffing and the secret Grey Poupon mustard addition to the gravy will both be debuting at my house, too, this years. Happy Thanksgiving!

I also really love your chill approach, for some reason the stress always creeps up out of nowhere even when I don't have guests! Loved the entire menu! Really want to make that gratin and mushrooms and green beans... And add a stick of butter to my chunky mashed potatoes (which are my fav too!!)

    @flowercook3915 2 года назад +24

    This was so great!
    I totally agree it's all about the sides,so some years I've done reverse seared pork loin, which is so much easier,and goes just as well with the same sides,of which the dressing is always our favorite too. But I do pay about $35 for a 20# farmette raised turkey here in northern Illinois so maybe that's where David is from?

    I'm cooking 10 cornish game hens and then going all out on the sides. Protein is to be cooked perfectly with simple seasoning and the sides are where all the deep and complex flavors come from. To me thanksgiving is all about the different plates of food. Not the turkey. Perfect video like always. Happy Holiday's!
