Boring Thanksgiving dinner.

We're going out this year. Giving momma a break.

My wife makes a kick ass sweet potatoe casserole. I may be able to talk her into parting with the recipe if you're interested.

IN!!

This year I will be smoking a turkey also. But since the fire will be hot I am going to throw a pork but and some ribs. No since in wasting a good fire.

Add a Side of Crack Head and a Drunk Bastard Souffle. Then Call the Police and call it a day. My "Family" quit trying a while back.

Every year it is the same boring ass meal.
Turkey (I will smoke one this year)
Green beans
corn
stuffing
Mashed potatoes
pumpkin pie
Looking to make something different, side dish or dessert. Any ideas?

Regarding the meal... Make Green Bean Casserole instead. You left out the Cranberry Oldschool = Can, or you can make relish with cranberries and sugar and orange zest.

We always do a couple ducks, kale salad, mashed sweet potatoes, and pumpkin pie.
