Turkey meat is commonly served in Germany, referred to as "Puten" as I recall. Also often used in Hungary. But, and this is a significant but...

Rarely is it served roasted "American-style." Usually served in a soup, as cutlets, or an equivalent to stir-fried. reason for this is typical cooking methods. The huge American oven is just not that common outside of NA.

I have European friends that are curious to try a roast turkey. Myself, I think a properly brined turkey is about the best thing going.

BTW - Thanksgiving is also celebrated in Canada. Different day (Oct 1?), and not as big a deal, but similar.
