Food The Battle For Turkey 2016

Can we put Drumpf in the hole?

Can we put Drumpf in the hole?

You try.
The secret service will do the needful.

This year I pardoned the turkey and smoked a pigs ass instead. Then I cooked a ham.

It's entirely possible to understand that paying to dig a hole is funny and understand the extremely unrelated fact that this country is broken.

Hipster alert

You should try the recipe I posted and then decide. The best part about it as that the whole thing can be made a day ahead of time. On the day, let it warm up to room temp and then throw it in the oven.

I've probably made at least six different types of dressing. It's by far the best I've ever made.

I cannot have the onion, but it isn't just the taste I don't care for. Then again out of 10 people not one requested dressing or stuffing. I think we've been without for 2 or more years now.

 

[Ledboots]

We had stuffing cooked in acorn squash, so good. @fly's recipe sounds delicious.

I never liked stuffing. In 44 years I never had stuffing I liked.

That was until last week when we went to a potluck Thanksgiving dinner at this church we been going to lately. Holy shit was that good. I met the guy who made it. Gonna ask him what all was in that stuff next time I'm there. Man, I never had stuffing like that. Sure as hell wasn't just some bullshit old bread.

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

A christmas tree has been assembled, despite my protestations.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

Agreed.
However, I fucking love me some dressing.

 

[HipHugHer]

Agreed.
However, I fucking love me some dressing.

I might agree but I'm not completely sure I know the difference?

Some folks use the terms interchangeably. Some have strict definitions. I just consider it "that other stuff that's not meat".

You fucker. Stand your ground.

Stuffing is cubed and dry. Dressing is closer to a savory bread pudding.

Of the two, dressing is far superior.

That is not the main difference.

Ugh.

I'm so tired of hearing this and now bothered I have to say it.

Stuffing is cooked in the bird and dressing is cooked in a dish.

Stuffing is cooked in the bird and dressing is cooked in a dish.

And of those two, which one is dry and cubed?

 

[APRIL]

And of those two, which one is dry and cubed?

They both are before cooking.

 

[APRIL]

... And both moist after cooking.

 

[Strings]

April knows how to stuff things.
..
And how not to ...

Then this stuff was dressing, and it was eggsellent.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

... And both moist after cooking.

Negative.
If you cook stuffing inside the turkey, by the time it takes even a small-medium bird to reach safe temps you have dried the stuffing.
If you don't reach those temps, then the stuffing has been swimming in raw turkey juices.

Stuffing cooked inside a bird is an abomination and should not be.

 

[HipHugHer]

I wouldn't take cooking advice from folks who make cinnamon twinkleberry "beer".
