My wife and I rarely cook turkey for Thanksgiving. This year we’re coming Cornish hens. In previous years we’ve cooked duck, leg of lamb, and rib roast. It’s not that we don’t like turkey, but there are lots of other things that I think I’d prefer eating.
Are you cooking something other than turkey this year? Or maybe preparing your turkey in a non-traditional way?
It’s just me for Thanksgiving this year, but I wanted to do a little something. Made deviled egg potato salad, but everything else was super simple. I decided to do indoor bbq on my Ninja indoor grill/air fryer. Just a sous vide chicken breast finished on the grill with bbq sauce glaze and canned baked beans. I did want a little Thanksgiving flavor so a I made a box of Stovetop cornbread stuffing, with gravy and cranberry sauce, and a small maple/mustard glazed ham steak. The ham steak was the only thing I bought specifically to make. Everything else was just stuff I had in the pantry/fridge.
