we have both - ham and turkey. I agree that both is overkill, and every year we discuss that, but nothing ever changes, lol

I enjoy both!

This year we are sticking to the turkey (because, I'm doing the cooking).

Turkey at Thanksgiving / Ham at Christmas for us. I make both. Use a fresh turkey for Thanksgiving (never frozen) and I like the Honey Baked Ham Company's ham for Christmas.

That's exactly what my family does for Thanksgiving and Christmas. That's funny.

There is just me a turkey or ham is a waste so I will have a very small prime rib cooked on the BBQ, a bid salad and a couple glasses of wine.

I'm slow roasting our turkey today. I brined it yesterday in a mix of apple cider, herbs, salt water. Today...I am injecting it with a creole butter marinade, and putting a compound herb butter under the skin, and then a mix of canola and evoo on the skin, before cooking low and slow. I got out the meat grinider yesterday and made my own sage, veal and beef sausage to go into my cornbread stuffing. Also boiling some mirliton's for my wife's shrimp and mirliton casserole...a must have for anyone from New Orleans!!! Also making artichoke balls for a starter...oh..plenty of chips and dip for the football games too!!!:b:b:b



Can we say 5000 calories in one sitting!!!! Oh...lets not forget my pumpkin and pecan pie's I am making too!!!
