I'm talking specific dishes here. My grandmother makes a mean turkey but the thing that really stands out is the chestnut cornbread stuffing. It might be the best thing I've ever eaten.

Well it ain't Grub it's what comes after the grub.
Pumpkin Pie is my absolute favorite thing at Thanksgiving Dinner.
I could eat it morning noon and night.

my favorite thing after thanks giving is putting up the christmass lights, and tree. as for eating, it would be the sweet potatoes! (i know, there's a guy on this website that can't stand 'em! can't remember his name though. sorry) i joke around with my wife about our family's tradition, being the son of italian imigrants my mother had NO CLUE how to prepare turkey, so growing up we had this tough, dried out brown thing i would call jerky, my mother called it thanks giving meal. i miss the traditional lasagna, with all the other goodies like squid, and ba-ca-la. |

as for me i like old stuff. my parents and grand parents grew us up in the old school of cooking. where lard was the staple of fat for cooking i have tried to use modern lard and it just doesnt taste the same and butter as a subsitute sometimes just dont work but it makes one heck of a pie crust. and when was the last time you had home made chocolate pudding? the kind your mom used to make?
thank god for my 1936 cookbook
saugage stuffing, lard crust pie,and pudding from scratch.

Turkey with my homemade sage dressing. My family just ate it up yesterday. I generally make pumpkin pies from scratch but not this year. My daughter bought two. Not near as good as mine, way too sweet. I make mine so that the whipped cream is enough sweetener.

Gotta be the stuffing,... but it's all good. Mother in law did all the cooking yesterday. She makes a gravy that my wife just can't duplicate. Sweet potatoes were great too. She made 6 pies... 2 scrumptious apple, 2 Pumkin, 2 walnut. mmm-mmm-good. |

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes in potato form, but as french fries they can't be beat.

Turkey log. Not really a grub I suppose. More of a snack. Take leftover smoked (SMOKED! not baked) turkey and grind it up fine. Mix 1 to 1 with cream cheese by volume. I just use the 8oz tub of cream cheese. dump in the mixer then fill with turkey grinding. Add one pack of the powdered french onion dip. (The kind you add to sour cream.) Roll into log and cover with paprika. Serve with snack crackers. warning! Keep hands out from between log and hungry guests.  |

My fondest childhood memories are around Thanksgiving- my mom (going strong) and grandmother (may she rest in peace) are/were the 2 best cooks.
The secret to a great turkey dinner: CORNBREAD DRESSING
I usually cook it Thanksgiving and Christmas- wouldn't be the holidays without it, and great with leftovers.
