anyone cooking for the holidays?

Well, we bought a electric turkey fryer last Christmas. We fried a Turkey Breast but for Thanksgiving we are gonna do a whole turkey. I know we're going to have cornbread with actual corn in it, Mac & Chesse with 5 different cheeses in it. I'm cooking braised red cabbage. If you have ever ate at a restaurant called "Houston's" they have it there. I can cook the exact same thing and it's good. My mother is going to cook us some sweet potato pie and her pies don't taste like everyone else's so I can't wait for that. Greens and dressing and we are going to be eating really good.

Thanks love...I have a great recipe for vegetarian greens but my aunt puts in a jalapeno it gives it a great spicy flavor...

My issue with turkey period is that its never seasoned enough. Some people sprinkle a little salt and pepper on it and think thats enough.

I season mines under the skin with a butter/season/herb blend, inject it with the same blend except with melted butter then season the shyt out of that turkey.
