🦃 Turkey Time
Let’s be honest, the turkey is the undisputed star of any Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving feast! But that big bird can be a bit intimidating to cook, even for experienced chefs.
📌Turkey Thawing – First things first! Unless you’re buying a refrigerated bird, you’ll need to thaw it. And that takes some time. Check out my turkey thawing guide so you can defrost it properly in the fridge and avoid the dreaded microwave method (the worst one, honestly!).
📌Cooking The Bird – Don’t worry, with the right guidance, it’s easier than you think! My free printable turkey cheat sheet, recipe card, and napkin wraps set will ensure your roasted turkey is perfectly cooked, moist, and flavorful (+ your festive table will look gorgeous). Don’t skip the brine, my friend, it’s so worth it!
📌Thanksgiving Recipe Planning – The set above also includes a Thanksgiving recipe card, so you can organize your favorite recipes and keep them all in one place. This will make it so much easier to decide what to cook for your Friendsgiving potluck.
Having a variety of recipes on hand helps you avoid any culinary duplicates (nobody wants three cranberry sauces!).
