Now fat is supposed to be a good thing. It appears that we’ve been bamboozled for decades.
Case and a half of MRE’s

Tell us you never lived in Hawaii without telling us you never lived in Hawaii.
Spam is a staple there. And, for some unknown reason, mayonnaise based pizza.....
“Tell us you never lived in Hawaii without telling us you never lived in Hawaii.” I never lived in Hawaii and I don’t touch Spam.
Bookmarking. Thank you, this looks very helpful!
If you had 19 guests over, killed and cooked one, you would have enough to feed the other 18.

You are welcome
For me it is:
Tuesday: leftovers (empty out the fridge!)
Wednesday: carry-out
Thursday: Thanksgiving dinner!!!! (Often. Waffles for breakfast)
Friday: TG leftovers and soup from the broth of the turkey
Stuff you could only get away with in Middle America.
Don’t try it (except maybe for the BLTs) on either of the Coasts.
Oh, and the chili, perhaps.
Or MIL is coming and staying for 6 nights?
Now I made two turkeys. Both 20+ pounders. I put the first one in the oven around 4am and it was done by about 9:30am. I covered with aluminum foil and put the second turkey in the oven.
Just after noon, as the guests had all arrived and were having the appetizers that we put out on a table for them, I went into the kitchen and started carving up the first turkey. I was able to take my time and build two huge platters of white and dark meat, which I then re-covered with tin foil and put into the upper oven to keep warm. (I put the carcass back in the refrigerator to use for soup later.)
Just after 2PM, dinner was ready to be served. The second turkey was done, which I placed in the middle of the table for presentation. Meanwhile, the platters of meat from the first turkey were passed around. We hardly had to touch the meat on the second bird. Which was fine with me as I had plenty of meat to last the rest of the weekend and we made some awesome soup from it too!
Sounds like a lovely dinner
For the first turkey, it was done at 9:30 but not served until. 2:00. You refrigerated, I assume...?
Yes, and then warmed up in oven after carving.
