You think a real caring president would kill that turkey and give it to a poor disadvantaged family to eat.

No video card on this puter - is that Les Nessman and the non-flying turkeys, perchance?

Yes it is, ending with Mr Carlson and his, "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly"

I love Les with his play by play of the turkeys hitting the ground. Classic TV.

It really was! I had to see if I could find out where Les's bandaid was that day, because I was picturing it on his forehead.

Revolutionary tip for those who don't like to dry out the breast before the thighs are done:

We cook the bird in a pyrex roaster, so it gets steamed pretty good thru-and-thru. Then take off the lid for about 15 minutes and broil it for that browning thing.........

The standard Better Homes And Gardens Recipe for cornbread stuffing (old cookbook, circa 1985).........with all the giblets cooked, chopped and added. Even buy extra giblets and add themm, too, and to make a big pot of giblet gravy..............

Have you ever noticed that people from The South generally refer to it as "dressing" and people from the north, refer to it as stuffing?..............

Ha, yes! That's why I added "stuffing" after I wrote the question. Some people think I'm talking about Miracle Whip!

In addition to the giblets that comes with the turkey, we buy maybe 3 tubs of chicken livers and a pound of gizzards/hearts and cook them in the pressure cooker (with onion, celery, herbs, etc) till they are very, very tender (about an hour after the pressure starts). Drain & strain, chop up in the food processor, add half to the dressing, other half to make the gravy..............

When I was in the Marine Corps (70's) the boys from up north didn't know what I was talking about when I'd say we're having "Turkey and dressing" at the chow hall on Thanksgiving. "You mean we gotta dress up on Thanksgiving?"..............

That's a great tip - I'll keep that in mind. Dressing always needs more meat pieces, IMO.

I also like to put sliced hard-boiled eggs in my giblet gravy, if I'm in the mood and have my mouth set for them.
