Not for dinner, but Mr. CE made leftover eggs benedict... Stuffing cakes topped with poached eggs and gravy. Sadly, no turducken included for reasons I can't fathom.

how great was turducken and how do you reheat it for leftovers?

Turducken was awesome! (He now wants it every year.) I haven't had any leftover but I think Mr. CE just nuked it yesterday.

Tonight's dinner was slow-roasted coho salmon (thank you Sitka Salmonshares!) with teriyaki sauce and left over ginger garlic green beans.

It seems that turducken is available from different shops - which brand or vendor did you buy?

We got it from a local butcher -- Paulina Meat Market -- and they make it in-house. https://www.paulinamarket.com/products/frozen-turducken

Bluefin tuna crudo (a friend's son has a boat and line catches them near the Channel Islands), fennel orange salad, roasted cauliflower with preserved lemon dressing.

Thanksgiving leftovers - stuffing, sweet potato casserole, turkey. plus gravy for stuffing (but not turkey) and cranberry.
I had to take out the frozen turkey to put in the fridge because we finished a big load of turkey!

the drumstick is huge! 16-lb turkey.

Is reheating methods a big Thanksgiving topic of discussion? :confused:

(I hate reheated roasted meat. It tastes really weird to me)

only for me. I never really did major real cooking until 2020. I’m like the kettle who’s only now learning of frequent flier programs.

what do you do with your roasted meat leftovers?

Not the first time I've been asked this question, but I don't have a good answer. I generally don't like sweets and they taste sweet to me. I eat dessert only occasionally, and when I do I prefer dark chocolate or banana flavors because they aren't as sweet. I don't abhor sweet potatoes...if someone serves them to me, I'll politely take a small serving. But I won't enjoy it, and would rather get my calories from anything else on the table. As for yams, I'm not certain I've ever had one. If they aren't as sweet, I might like them.

Sweet potato fries, in my own unpopular opinion, are one of the worst food creations ever. Not only do they have that sugary taste (which fries shouldn't have), but they are soggy and floppy almost 100% of the time. The texture is off-putting. Again, if someone serves them to me, I'll politely eat them. I will never order them for myself or make them at home.

Looking through all the menus and pics, glad to see so many nice Thanksgiving dinners!
I think I mentioned a week or so ago that my mother in law was deciding what to make instead of turkey this year. Just to close the loop, we ended up with a delicious prime rib. :)

No reason you should have to apologize for your taste preference ;) Isn't variety what makes the world go 'round ( or something like that).
As for Thanksgiving I applaud your choice - I'd highly prefer prime rib to turkey - altho the choice of fresh sashimi had me drooling too!

I enjoy the enthusiasm that you've taken to cooking, but surely you've reheated food before?

Eat them cold or bin them.

ive never reheated roast turkey or mashed potatoes :-).

I also prefer reheated food that’s originally hot. It’s hard for me to enjoy cold Chinese cuisine / cold pasta / cold steak.
I can eat thinly sliced roast beef as a sandwich but not by itself :-)

Reheating pasta etc isn't an issue, it's reheating proteins that causes food to taste weird.

It's a real thing too, not just in my mind. I guess some people don't have the Ramsayesque palate of moi so don't notice it. Poultry is definitely the worst.

Turkey tacos using Jicama wraps for those of us being good.
