Well, this year all I have to make is desserts. Usually I make the traditional turkey or ham, stuffing (lots!) potatos, brussel sprouts, carrots, cranberry sauce, rolls and salad.

I have also made rib roast using Paula Deen's instructions for roasting--OMG, OMG! absolutely delicious! If you like rare to medium rare meat, you have to use her recipe. I suppose if you like your meats cooked a little more you can leave the oven on a little longer, but OMG! the roast came out fantastic. I've used her method several times and on different sizes of roasts and it has come out the same each time-delicious!

I get carried away with desserts! I just love to cook too much!
Its a pork stuffing. I was just trying to send a 'recipe' to Viola and had the hardest time! Its a family tradition so we all just inherently know how to make it. I have NO idea how much of what you need to make it. Everything is really 'to taste'.

Its
3lbs ground pork
1lb ground beef

cook up together in a large pan so that meat is crumbled finely.

Peel, cut and boil potatoes (no idea how many thats the problem) Mash them with nothing in them, just the potatoes. (I like to leave some small lumps in them)

Mix the meat with the potatoes a little at a time until you have the right consistency. It should be where the meat all clumps together and you can scoop it up easily without it falling apart, but too much potatoes and thats all you really taste.

My family uses Bells seasoning and ground cloves for seasoning. Just add, mix and taste until it tastes right to you. There are no real measurements.

This should be enough to stuff a LARGE turkey and make 2 pork pies (I buy pillsbury pie crust and put a bottom crust in a pie pan and fill it with the stuffing, then add a top crust, slice the top of the crust with steam vents and bake for like 30 - 45 mins. Yummy meal.

Good Luck to whoever attempts this!

30lbs!!!!! WOW!!! I confess I can't make it. My ex fiance was spanish and his whole family made it often. I have quite a few spanish friends and they make it on the fly. Im always so impressed! I love spanish food. I had pernil twice last week and it was the first time I had it in probably a year! Not often enough!

I cooked a conventional Thanksgiving turkey dinner for the past 51 years, and this year will be totally unconventional to say the least. My sons want to BBQ and watch football, so they are grilling tri-tip, hamburgers & hot dogs and I'll make a white chili and some pies. Doesn't really matter what's for dinner as long as you get to share with family & friends.

I said something backwards... you want to mix the potatoes into the meat a little at a time, not the opposite. You want the meat to be dominant, not the potatoes.

We go over to my mom's house for thanksgiving. It's turkey, walnut stuffing and Amish stuffing, corn, green beans, mash potatoes, squash and homemade pumpkin pie and apple pie. We also have a few different wines to try This year I am bringing a meatless dish for me in place of the turkey because I have became vegetarian this past May

The day after thanksgiving we go over to my inlaws because Downtown Sandusky has the Tree lighting ceremony that day! We alway's go down for that. They do not have a turkey for thanksgiving diner, this year she is making roast beef. Again I am bringing my own dish in place of the beef. She is roasting vegies in a vegie broth for me though. At first my mother in law told me that I was going to ruin thanksgiving and that I was picky enough as it was let alone to become a vegetarian, but she has simmered down after I have brought my own dished to share when they host a diner for us. I also bring a nice bottle or two of wine for that, and after the ceremony we head back for hot cocoa and hot apple cider and I share the wine with the adults!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, wow, so many thing to be thankful for!,and ever since we got married (23 years) I always cook, all the family comes over, roasted turkey some years, marinated cuban style, other years traditional, I've tried soaking the turkey into salt and spices water, sorry forgot the name (brie?), this year my husband wants it fried, but we need to buy the fryer.My mom does the sweet potatoes with marshmallow and lots of butter, my kids do apple pie and key lime pie (to die for!)green been casserole, corn, mashed potatoes,stuffing, if we go cuban style, then we go with white rice and black beans, but since it's so close to Christmas, and its the only time we cook the whole turkey, we much rather go traditional.

My thanksgiving is in no way traditional, well actually it is but we just add things from our culture. We normally have:

Turkey (There is no other way to cook a turkey but to brine it!, last year I used to Emerils Recipe: Brined, Herb Roasted Turkey Recipe : Emeril Lagasse : Food Network
and I use Alton Brown's cooking method :Good Eats Roast Turkey Recipe : Alton Brown : Food Network

- I also love making this stuffing! It is amazing! - Awesome Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing - Allrecipes

- Mashed Potatoes
- Sweet potato Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Onions - Allrecipes
- Caesar Salad
- Green Bean Casserole

This is where we spice things up
We are Cuban so we make

- Pork
- Cassava (Yuca)
- Cuban Bread with butter and garlic
- Moro (Black bean rice)

For dessert we always have

-Flan
-Pumpkin Pie
- Sweet potato pie
- Arroz con leche

I am the one that normally does all of the cooking, I make things such as the desserts a few days in advance and do most of the prepwork the day before!

I love thanksgiving!

The way that we prepare pork is:

We make a pork shoulder (about 8-9lbs)

we first get:

-sour orange about 3 cups
- a couple tablespoons of black pepper
-10-15 cloves of garlic
- some oregano
-some cumin

We mix it all in the blender. Then we salt the pork, and then pour the marinade over, opening some areas with a knife and pouring it inside. We used to have a syringe so we used to inject the marinade in it but it broke. We basically cover it with the marinade. Then we pat dry the skin on the top and put butter so that it becomes crunchy. Then we cook it at 300 degrees for about 5 hours. Just keep an eye on it and it, when done the meat will literally come off the bone. The top will get bubbly and crunchy which tastes awesome. Hope this helps! If you have any questions feel free to ask.

P.S. You may have leftover marinade,put it away because it works well on anything from chicken to steaks!

The whole family used to go to my mom and dad's for turkey, stuffing, mashed potato, gravy, turnip, butternut squash, salad, rolls, pickles, olives, pumpkin pie, apple pie and pecan pie. They are in Florida and will not be home until Christmas. My sister will do Christmas Eve and I will do Christmas Day (same menu). We are going to a restaurant for Thanksgiving and the menu is fantastic. No cleanup!!
