Re: What's on your Thanksgiving dinner menu?
Let's see. My mom is doing Thanksgiving this year, so she's doing all the cooking for that, but I am cooking the gluten-free portion which includes a gluten-free turkey, stuffing, mashed taters, dinner rolls, and pumpkin pie. Potatoes don't have gluten normally, but trying to keep them free of contamination in a gluten environment is tricky around a hectic meal preparation.

Re: What's on your Thanksgiving dinner menu?
Deep Fried Turkey and Smoked Leg of Lamb! We are doing ours on the 28th this year because of family coming in town. So on the 26th I think the BBQ Ribs or Chili sounds good, cause all the girls will want to go to the movies in the afternoon. Then get ready for Black Friday and the boys and I will Drink and watch football.
We also are going to try a new pie out this year we saw on food network, a pumpkin-banana cheese cake!

Re: What's on your Thanksgiving dinner menu?
Eating with my sister and family on Wednesday...prolly the usual Turkey dinner described by several above.
On T-day we will be visiting my aunt in her assisted living facility and prolly going to a restaurant. Several around here offer some good sounding dinners...and with just us it wouldn't be worthwhile to make the whole dinner thingie.

Whatever I can catch anchored off Cayo Costa for the weekend, if the fishing sucks then the backup plan is burgers on the grill or a dingy ride to Cabbage Key

Penny, what's in the stuffing? Almost looks like it could be some chestnuts in there.
