You're right, I did over-cook the steamed broccoli. Bad timing, I
walked out of the room and left the pan on the still hot burner. Oh
well! It was still tasty.

I didn't photograph mine, so it didn't happen. The hallucination
was delicious, though.

Of course it didn't happen and I'm glad yours was delicious.

I'm enjoying the moist baked cornbread dressing. I wish I'd thought to
make squash casserole. That's another use for a bit of the cornbread
dressing, and it could have been baked right alongside it. Oh well!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I neglected to mention the duck was delicious! Nice crispy skin yet
very tender moist meat.

I hope your capon and all the sides are very tasty.

We did the Turkey breast thing for the first time here. For once, I
didn't have a horde to feed (sad smile).

Making a whole duck at home is actually not as difficult as they make
it out to be but if David doesn't like duck, then it's a bit much to
deal with at home. In my experience, 1 duck makes about 10 servings
for us low meat eater folks as it's a very rich fatty meat.

<yawn> Thanks, Julie.

You'll cook a whole capon for yourself even though your boyfriend
won't eat it. But you won't cook a duck for yourself because your
boyfriend won't eat it. Uh, OK.

Not only do you carry on like Julie, but you about as much sense as
her, too. You just like to hear yourself talk.

I didn't cook nothing. My daughter made dinner is a slow-cooker. It had turkey, stuffing, brussel sprouts, and potatoes and yams. I thought it was pretty darn good. You stick everything in a crock pot and that's it. Amazing!

I long Island duckling typically yields four children's portions and
not very large... most L I restos serve half a duck.

The Broccoli needed to blanch and chill first.

It's a bit limpid.

The color balance is spot on - but no crispy skin?!?!?

Oh no!

Yoose got some real nerve making stoopid remarks on the pictures of others. The photos you post pretty much prove that you're not qualified to pass judgement on ugly plates of food. My suggestion is that you ditch yoose camera as soon as you can.

I admit that the plate was a mess but my point was that this was a one pot dish of Thanksgiving dinner. That's the amazing part - the concept. It was pretty successful in that regard. It was also tasty.

But, and I hate to harp on it, no crispy skin!

Otherwise - aces.

Shelly is back to his usual plate bashing and you must take no mind for

Yes it was. The Brussel sprouts work well in such a dish. I don't know much more about it than that. I don't want to deconstruct other cook's dishes unless I'm trying to make it myself - it's more enjoyable that way.

Here's the deal, it's got nice stratigraphy, classic content, and (most
importantly) YOUR family got to spend a lot less time in the kitchen
than MINE did!

And you didn't have to cook a day ahead either for pie and sides.

Whatever comprised the time spent with each other was likely more
enjoyable than over-watching a potentially dry bird, imho.

My .02c.

Oh and...crispy skin...sorry...

;-)

If it tastes good, who cares what it looks like. Let's leave that to
the fussy biddies.

Crispy skin would be great but I'm not complaining to the cook about that. I'm just glad she did the cooking so I wouldn't have to. This was the first time that I've never had to cook on Thanksgiving. The spell has been broken!

Crispy skin is paramount when I cook a turkey. Around 20 years ago, we had my in-laws come over for dinner and I made a turkey. Back then, I was trying all kinds of ways to cook a turkey. The turkey was out of the oven and I was tending to some other business. When I got back into the kitchen, my mother-in-law had stripped the turkey of all its wonderful crispy skin. That was shocking! It does, however, make for a rather amusing tale to tell some 20 years later. I was always careful to never leave my mother-in-law alone with a whole turkey after that.

A magical transition that we all can enjoy as time moves up on us.

I bet she was proud of all the yums she got too.

OMG!

That's like a secular SIN as it were.

Someone else here likes skinless turkey, so I guess there is a minor
following.

I might have skinned your MIL on the spot to make up for the loss...

;-)

We have found the ATK method of using baking powder is foolproof.

Making someone else do it for you - priceless.

Ah, that picture has obvious Turkey as well.

I'm curious how she did the turkey but other than lack of a crispy
skin, you can indeed do a bird in a crockpot if it fits.

Just FYI since we have few here who use a crockpot all the time, here
is a likely way she may have done it to make that effect. It's not the
only way, but on that would work to the picture. It uses a few
assumptions like 1/2 a Turkey breast (4lbs or so).

The white potatoes are pristine as mashed with the mashed sweet
potatoes along the side. That means the turkey was cooked in a
separate crockpot at the same time *or* done ahead then reheated (both
methods valid and folks who learn crockpot cookery well tend to have
more than one due to needs for differnt sizes).

All of the parts were done with minimal liquid. The tubers were peeled
and placed in still wet with 2-3TB water then left on low for probably
about 4 hours. If the bottoms browned a bit, that part was removed
before mashing. THe brussels may have been cooked at the same time and
large hunks of carrots would have been as well if you saw any.

The Turkey would have been done ahead (or same time in a separate
crockpot) on high for about the same time with a minimal liquid added
(2-4TB broth).

Had they been done together, the Potatoes wouldnt be white once mashed
;-)

I have however made almost that identical dish with leftover cooked
turkey and fresh veggies, all at the same time. You add the leftover
turkey near the end.

That's funny. My husband and I do to our turkey exactly what your MIL
did to yours. But the turkey is ours to do with what we please.
