  1. Happy Thanksgiving to you, Kim. And a hearty “Thank You!” for the most reliably entertaining, truth-telling, educational and longest standing blog of my acquaintance.

  2. To my American friends … have a wonderful Thanksgiving and especially give thanks for living in what is still the best country in the world for personal freedom. Keep it that way!

  3. Ribz on T Day.
    Why’d I never think of that?
    Welp, now I know what the next T Day is gonna look like!

    1. ghost:

      Our local grocery store (part of a chain) had a pre-Thanksgiving sale on standing rib roasts. For the two of us we bought a 6-pounder (4-rib). We follow an old “Cooks Illustrated” (November 2017 issue) recipe for prime rib, which includes salting it and then dry-aging in the fridge for a couple of days, searing it on cast iron outside on the 2-burner, and the slow-slow-roasting until the temperature probe in dead-center hits our desired RARE mark. That lets you hit it perfectly every time, but it’s hard to predict when it will be done. So the wine bottle is opened early for quality control checks until the alarm goes off on the temperature sensor. Then it’s slice and devour!

      Lots of left-overs, including roasting the separated bones on the grill the next day.

      1. That sounds wonderful!
        Keep up stuff like that and we’ll all come to your house next Thanksgiving.

  5. Happy Thanksgiving!
    Ribs are great (I do some mean ribs) – but I will say this. If you don’t like roast turkey, it is probably because whoever is cooking it doesn’t know what they are doing. If it isn’t moist, tender and full of flavor – you are doing it wrong.

  6. I got a stomach bug yesterday. I had two bites of turkey, spit out the cranberries, forced down a 2 inch square of dressing w/ gravy, 2 bites of green bean casserole, a bite of sweat potato, and part of a sourdough roll. I couldn’t do the citrus salad or asparagus.

    I am sitting here watching freaking Christmas movies with the family in the closest seat to the bathroom. My stomach has declared you are nauseous but you are also hungry and it is only 3:45.
