RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

And by that I mean let's argue about how to cook Thanksgiving food and what food is best. I'm a firm believer that canned green beans are better than fresh or frozen green beans in green bean casserole.

Usually, I brine, sous vide and smoke a turkey, but this year we decided to change it up and make pumpkin seed mole enchiladas, filled with turkey thighs braised in the style of Mexican birria, roasted squash, mushrooms and goat cheese.

We're serving that with cilantro rice, roasted fresh green beans with sweet garlic and crispy shallots, and a nice big green salad.

For desert, I'm making apple crisp and a pumpkin pie goat cheese ice cream.
