After cooking Thanksgiving dinners for 65+ years, my elderly mom is throwing in towel on cooking one this year. It is a 2 day chore to prepare and cook the dinner. This year she is going with a tenderloin, nuked potatoes and green beans..
I totally get it. I think I’ve only been doing the main cooking for 35 years. I often brine the turkey two days before, then marinate the day before, but this year skipping all that and will just inject the bird with orange juice.
