Does anyone have any tips on heating up the smoked turkey? Our normal plans fell through and we decided to try this for our main dish at tday this year. I've seen some people talk about sous vide'ing but not sure the plastic it comes wrapped in is up for the task.

I've seen some people talk about sous vide'ing but not sure the plastic it comes wrapped in is up for the task. The whole ones? We just hacked it apart and ate it leftover style while making all the normal things as usual. This ended up with us nuking the turkey, but having fresh all the other stuff, worked out great. It's all destined for leftovers anyway so why reheat it twice?

Late contributing to booze chat but I've felt the bourbon was kinda bland. The 12-year scotch isn't bad but isn't enough of an upgrade over the basic bitch blend to spring an extra $20 imo. The scotch and the spiced rum are ridiculous value. I'll grant you that I only ever use the rum as a mixer. That 15-year stuff I just got though is wonderful and I've been having that with just an ice cube or two.

The Rum is god awful. No idea about that new aged rum, but the regular spiced is not worth the lack of price

Church has the Trident fish stick bags marked with the star of death. I will be disappointed if I can no longer tithe $15/month in the name of my children.

Barton is the manufacturer and, while I would normally disagree with you re: bourbon being capable of "bland," Barton is the one maker that would pull it off. That said I think it's a really nice whiskey with green apple and caramel popcorn notes that's easy to drink straight for all palates. Note it is a higher proof than many (non-bottled-in-bond) bourbons as well, especially that you find at Costco.

You could always sous vide parts of it to get it gentle warmed, if you don't carve at the table people probably wouldn't even know.

Thank you thread, I was planning to drop by (you know where) to pick up some wine today. It will probably be even worse today than Right After Church Gets Out On Sunday, so I will overpay for wine someplace else. I was just there Sunday, Before Church Got Out, but apparently there are laws about the time you can start selling booze on Sundays. Having never before been out of bed before 11 on a Sunday I had no idea.

I just had my first Sanders caramels of the year, and they were…extremely average. I feel betrayed. They’re so much thinner than they used to be that the ratio is off and you only taste chocolate. Did people not want a 1” cube that was 300 calories????

No idea about that new aged rum, but the regular spiced is not worth the lack of price The new aged rum is enormously better than the current state of Costco spiced rum. (Seriously, it's quite enjoyable straight and mixed.) That $15 handle of spiced rum used to be my regular go-to when I had friends over, goin to BBQs etc. Wasn't amazing, but it was serviceable. Bought one last year (maybe the year before, time is slipping away) after a Covid delay from church visits and... holy poo poo what did they do. It tastes like burning. Tastes like gasoline. Just straight garbage. Bacardi is better than that swill.

Had family in town earlier this week, so we did the turkey thanksgiving already this past Sunday. While i was at work today, my wife loads up all five of the kids and proceeds to head to church to a) get gas, and b) head inside for steaks and fixings. No way are we going to do a second turkey dinner this week! She’s a goddamn hero, that woman.
