Poll question: What kind of bird are you eating on Thursday?

[bif]

1. A pork loin

Not a big fan of turkey.

[Richardo]

2. Steak!

Mrs. Richardo and I are having a "we're-adults-with-no-kids-or-visiting-family-so-let's-have-what-WE-want" Thanksgiving.

:thumbsup:

[GOPisEvil]

10. Good for you!

If I had that option, I'd have something non-traditional myself. But, since mom is cooking...

[GOPisEvil]

3. Dead; hopefully.

}(

Er, basic Butterball.

[Richardo]

[Noordam]

Restaurant Bird :evilgrin: That it for me.........

[BurtWorm]

9. That's probably what I would be having if we were in NY

but we're going to Maine and will be having free-range bird.

[soothsayer]

5. this year there's all these frozen geese available too

I'm doing turkey, but might do goose for xmas

[BurtWorm]

8. I just added goose and duck.

[Bolo Boffin]

6. Deep-fried, I believe

But later that night, I'm hosting an "orphan's" thanksgiving for wayward actors, and making a vegi chili. Yummy.

11. Cornish Game Hen (I am only feeding 1 person)

My Dad's sister is sick so he will be in WV and my Sister is spending the holiday with her boyfriend so I will be alone.
I am volunteering at a ladies shelter but they don't need me this week.

[BurtWorm]

14. I've done that before. It can suck, or it can be better than average.

No family squabbling before, during and after the meal.

May yours be better than average.

[corarose]

17. I am kind of use to be alone now

It bothers me but I have my two cats.

Your right at least their won't be any arguing.

Maybe this time next year I will be in England on an Extern ship.

27. Cornish Hens..

One bird.

Marinate in the stuff of your choice, maybe overnight.

Fold the wings back and cook the bird whole on your grill.
Delicious! I also bake them in the old oven. 45 minutes. You know!

My Aunt lives in Chicago in one of those high rise
buildings! Beautiful city.... Near the lake and downtown on LaSalle I think....

Happy holidays.

12. tofurkey!!!!!

with mashed potatoes, watercress, and chocolate pumpkin chreezecake.

[bobja]

15. Home made tofurkey for us!

with stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, peas, yams, cranberry sauce. Yum.

[corarose]

21. What do they taste like?

I wanted to buy one of the Tofurkey Dinners at Whole foods but I didn't want to spend $20.00 dollars on it without knowing what it tasted like.

[ZenLefty]

13. This big bird right here

[Hell Hath No Fury]

16. I'll be having the traditional...

Thanksgiving enchiladas! With all the trimmings. Homemade, of course. :)

[ajacobson]

18. Buffalo

tenderloin at a fine dining establishment. I'll be happy to pay someone else to clean my dishes, thank you very much. Doubles as anniversary dinner too!

[BiggJawn]

19. Pig.

There's Turkey, and there's Ham. and for some reason, I always get asked to carve.
Guess that's because I make such nice, thin slices....
(the secret's in the blade-a pre-war Henckels Twinnworks carbon-steel butcher's knife)

[BurtWorm]

20. Do pigs fly?

:o

[commander bunnypants]

22. Agreat big buttery breast

MMM MMM Good.

23. Apparently we only rate a Ham this year...

Mom doesn't cook any other days of the year save thanksgiving and Christmas, but she doesn't want to be put out to make a simple turkey breast and some stuffing. So, she's buying a premade ham and making STOVE TOP... :freak: This is going to be the worst Thanksgiving EVER....and dammit, my mom makes the best cornbread stuffing...I'm so bitter...
Duckie

24. "The Bird"

I've been collecting them from every driver who flips me one.

[geniph]

25. I'm agitating for a duck

since it's just my husband and myself this year...but then we won't have enough for sandwiches all weekend, and that IS a consideration.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

26. an african grey parrot if he calls me a "douche" one more time

[King Coal]

28. I've been hunting chickenhawks.

Have you seen any? Serving them up with greasy grimy gofer guts, the Nazi bastridges!

[geniph]

30. I hear there's quite a few of 'em in DC, oldtimer

and :hi: welcome to DU!

[Faygo Kid]

29. CROW - I am a Lions' fan; but it's my last link to the family tradition

Just like every Thanksgiving (and the Lions occasionally win the game), I will eat crow because I have been a Lions fan since 1962 (when I was 11). But, it's tradition. Mom's gone this year (September); my uncle and aunt who I always spent Thanksgiving with died some years ago; divorced twice; all my beloved pets are now dead; daughter is in Florida, and I will miss her terribly; the Hudson's Parade is now run by corporate out-of-staters. Yet, the one thing I cling to is the Lions' game. Don't go anymore, but it isn't Thanksgiving without it. All that's left, but it's something. Happy Thanksgiving.
