Karrie I think there will always be a stuffed, roast turkey on at least two of the three hollidays I mentioned, but the braised turkey I just made impressed me enough that we will be having turkey more than just on those hollidays. If you ever feel you want to try braising a turkey, I would...

Thanks for the info Nuggler.......Though it doesn't particularly turn my crank, I'm sure there are people out there(read down there) who would get a kick out of mounting it on the tailgate of their favourite pickup truck along with a few cases of cold beer to go with it. There was talk of the...

I don't think I've ever seen one of those Nuggler. How big a turkey can you cook with one? I have to agree with Karrie regarding the traditional turkey dinner with all the trimmings. In our house we traditionally have turkey at Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. With the braised turkey I...

Hi Karrie I know there is a certain charm to bringing a nicely browned, stuffed turkey to your table. I think if a person used a bit of artistic licence, you might be able to arrange the cooked, browned parts on a mound of dressing to make it sort of look like a traditional holliday bird...

Thanks for the compliment.......The only thing stopping me is getting the inclination and the ambition together at the same time. On the other hand, if we keep adding to the recipes here we won't need one....;-)

I cut the turkey into it's component parts; wings, drumsticks, thighs. The breast was still a little frozen so it got relegated back to the freezer. I cut the tips off the wings, threw the tips into the stock pot and cut the wings in half at the joint. I browned all the pieces in hot oil and...

Thanks people; What I'm going to do is cut the turkey up like a frying chicken and brown it. I have some good turkey stock and I will braise that bird for a couple hours with a few vegetables and hope for the best.......cheers...:smile:

I took this 17 pound bird out of the freeze Yesterday. I've been trying to think of something other than just baking it in the oven, We were at our children's house for Christmas so we still have this damn turkey. I have a recipe that calls for the turkey to be hacked up, browned, and...

Immanuel Velikovski, a Russian born psychiatrist, proposed a series of unlikely astronomical events, not the least of which was the ejection of the planet Venus from Jupiter. Now Jupiter has an escape velocity of 59.5 km/sec so the energy needed to spit out Venus would likely have blown the...

The Classic Middle Name It only occurred to me in the early 1990s that "Wayne" was a popular middle name among a few of the most heinous murderers of our time, e.g., the clown John Wayne Gacy (who killed almost three dozen boys and young men in the late 1970s and buried most of them...

Or you could add chopped up bananas to this before baking: Chocolate Croissant Bread Pudding Recipe Ingredients 3 extra-large whole eggs 8 extra-large egg yolks 5 cups half-and-half 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 6 croissants, preferably stale, sliced...

Sounds interesting. Just one thing. Do you cook the eggs, butter, and sugar layer?

There is probably nothing better for a clean, fresh, palette cleanser as you say, but my baser side tries to emerge throw on a glop of whipped cream.....;-)

One of the restaurants on Gabriola Island served something like this a few years back when we lived on that island. I liked it. If I remember right, they sprinkled the grapefruit halves with brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter before the broiling. I always meant to try it at home but I never have.

I finally made your meatloaf last night. Everybody liked it. I will make it again but the next time I will use a loaf pan. I have a teflon lined loaf pan that works very well and the slices fit the bread better for sandwiches.

The Tories would not neccesarily win. The trend seems to be that the Tories are losing the popular support that may have won them an election a few months back. Liberals neck-and-neck with Tories...

BEST-EVER SCALLOPED POTATOES-to go with the ham... 4 medium potatoes milk shredded cheddar 1 large onion garlic powder oregano Scallop potatoes by slicing width-wise to create very thin circles. Thinly slice onion and separate into thin strips. Layer alternately: potatoes, onion, cheddar...

Cheer up Ron. We'll save you a sandwich...:smile:

The hard smoked country hams are the most salty. They are meant to last through a year with no refrigeration so there is a lot of salt there. But hey, we like what we like...Nobody can complain about that....;-)
