    It is @myhouse

    I was all #whybother when Thanksgiving came up a few weeks ago. Daughter replied "It's not Thanksgiving without smoked Duck."

    Brought me a tear.

    There is a lot to be said for how early experiences of the holiday shapes preferences for years to come. I grew up with roast turkey, bread stuffing, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and turkey gravy for Thanksgiving, and I still enjoy those foods. Christmas has always been roast beef, usually prime rib or tenderloin. After I married, my wife brought her holiday traditions, including smoked turkey, cornbread dressing, and corn casserole -- the latter I cannot abide. Our daughter loves corn casserole, and it is part of the holidays to her. Needless to say, we have it for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    We are smoking a turkey breast for Thanksgiving even though I am craving fried turkey, and my wife's parents are doing a ham. There will be mashed potatoes, peas, green bean casserole, and, yes, corn casserole.

    My favorite part of Thanksgiving is a dark, heavy beer with a dark, heavy cigar while checking the frying bird every now and then. Thick cut fried turkey sandwiches are pretty great too. I wanted a fried bird and a smoked bird this year but I guess the smoked bird will have to wait.

    Our family are clearly not mainstream . . . If you are not towards the front of the line to the table, the dark meat is long gone. (If we could get a 4 legged turkey with no breasts, it would be a win!)

    Something to do with the white meat tending towards tasteless and often dry . . . .

    All the years growing up, Thanksgiving and Christmas were turkey or ham (or both, if a big get together). Never did beef for Christmas until I was with my current wife . . .

    I'm glad I'm not the only one. Thanksgiving is a cruel joke. I'm a fatty who loves me some gluttony as much as the next guy but it's like they designed the holiday version of a Chinese buffet jam packed with every food I can't stand imaginable. About the only Thanksgiving foods I end up eating are rolls and green bean casserole. Maybe mashed potatoes.
