Thanksgiving food is crap. I've only ever had one good Thanksgiving meal and it was when I unexpectedly found myself in a situation where I had to go out to a restaurant for it. And that was mostly just a highly elevated version of it that barely even resembled a traditional Thanksgiving meal.

Real mashed potatoes and brown gravy. Pumpkin pie.

I love a turkey sandwich on the Friday after while watching football, more than I like the Thanksgiving Day dinner.

This is correct. Best part about Thanksgiving meal is the leftovers. Oddly...

It’s quite easy to win Thanksgiving. Stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy and Mac and cheese are the optimal sides. Replace turkey with smoked ham, ribs or brisket. Finish with any kind of pie/cobbler and ice cream. Nap and repeat on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

If you want a short-cut to great mashed potatoes, skip the butter, half-and-half, etc., and just use a jar of good garlic alfredo pasta sauce.

I also use Yukon gold potatoes, which are so much better than russets.

My mom would make mincemeat pie, dad and my brother would eat it. How many of you all had that?

Wine

Beaujolais Nouveau

 

[StoneTempleHusker]

Beer, wine, scotch, whiskey, vodka, rum. Any of those will suffice as a sufficient 'side'.

I always thought mincemeat was a mixture of roadkill you saved up till you had enough to make a pie.

 

[TripleOption67]

Cure81 baked ham, mashed potatoes with brown gravy, stuffing, chocolate pie and pumpkin spice pie with whipped cream.

My mother grew up dirt poor back then they didn’t waist anything but I doubt they saved road kill
