Cooking a turkey is simple, given everything else you cook. No need to practice, and who wants that much turkey in one month?
Omg yes...turkeys are usually eaten over several days in leftover form. I can't imagine taking a few days and having pasta with Rao's sauce in between and then making another turkey. I also don't see the point. Unless you are entering a contest or serving a big feast just have the Thanksgiving one be your first one.
gaobest, i suggest you find a simple website or cookbook or magazine that breaks it all down for you. I forsee some day and night anguish over the next 2 weeks. There is no law that says you have to have turkey...i have been known to have a steak or pizza if it was just me or 2 people . Also,.i used to turn my nose at buying pre-prepared turkey dinners with all the sides that most grocery stores offer. I have had a few now that others have done and they have been excellent . One of my old jobs used to have a company lunch that was from Whole Foods and it was amazing.
