RUN! No one is safe this Thanksgiving! They're going to eat us both!!!!I'm hosting the holiday this year for my side of the family. It's not a big group, which often gives me the opportunity to try new things or even more expensive things. Hubby usually does the turkey and I tackle the sides (along with a few desserts) - it's a pretty good system and has worked well for us over the last 22 years (not one stabbing incident has been reported, so it must be working. :cool: )
Over the past few years we've heard the buzz about the "turducken" and at first thought it was a joke. Now I see them advertised in the butcher ads...so...hubby has decided this year will be the Turducken Thanksgiving at our house.
Since I don't tackle the meat - I'm a little cynical that this is a good plan for a holiday, but I have been assured by the all-powerful meat cooker of my domain that this will be the star of my holiday table.
Honestly, it looks pretty darn good to me (and since I haven't seen any of the stores giving one of these babies away with a $100 in-store purchase, I assuming it will NOT come cheap!) But I'm a writer on a deadline folks, and if hubby is willing to cook this monster (and he's a great cook, so I really don't doubt him :mrgreen: ) then who am I to argue? (I like to think I'm smarter than that!)
I do have a Thanksgiving deadline on my current novel and would like to have it done before so I can relax and enjoy my holiday - with that deadline hanging over my head, it's possible I might not enjoy eating that pumpkin pie loaded with whipped cream (okay, who am I kidding :shock: )
I think I'll take notes...you just might see a turducken in my next book! Have you ever made a turducken? Any sage advice I should pass along to the hubby?

First I have to say thanks for the great comment you left on my last post…I really appreciate the voice of reason…Oh and educated reason too lol. And about this whole “new meat” thing….I’m not to sure I can be sold on anything that is going to go in my belly…that starts with the word “turd”…I’m just sayin… nikki(Quote)
Oooh, I have always wanted to try a turducken too – you will have to post after Thanksgiving with a full review. The most exotic way I’ve tried Turkey is fried, and that was pretty darn tastey.
