We always do turkey at Thanksgiving. Won't settle for anything else! We do Ham and a turkey breast for Christmas and my mom makes a pork roast for New Year's Eve. I used to bowl with a girl who hated turkey and her family always has steak for Thanksgiving!

There's always a turkey and a ham...sometimes it's a country ham.

I am cooking a turkey tonight overnight! I'll set my alarm for around 3 or 4 AM & stick the turkey in the oven & go back to bed. Then on my way to work tomorrow morning, I will drop it off at my parents & my Dad is going to carve it for me! I think I'm more excited about the smell of turkey baking in our house than I am about eating it!!! :grin:

OHHHH! My grandfather cured his own country hams, and we always had a plate of cold sliced country ham next to the turkey at any holiday meal at my grandparents' house. I sure do miss it.

When I was a kid, we never had a turkey dinner for Thanksgiving---because that was the morning my parents made their fruitcakes for Christmas. Contrary to what you usually hear about fruitcakes, friends and neighbors would BEG my folks to give them fruitcake for Christmas. I spent Thanksgiving morning next door at the grandparents', safely out of the way, watching the Macy's parade on their color TV set. At noon, my grandma gave me a country ham sandwich for lunch before I went back home.

Most years yes, but we've been known to have other main meats as well. Some years we've had a ham, cornish hens, a pork shoulder and even a roast; my mum made one about two years ago that was so tender and delicious that I still have fond memories of that roast. Because my mum likes to offer people a choice when it comes to the holiday meats even when the menu includes turkey theres always another selection in which to choose from.

Since yesterday I found out that our modest gathering of 8 morphed into 10 we'll certainly have a smallish turkey and perhaps a roast of some sort or maybe a ham.

One year my mom and aunt decided to try and do things besides turkey. That was NOT ok with me. Its been turkey ever since. Can't have it any other way.

One year we went anti-Thanksgiving with the menu and had lasagna. It was weird so we went back to turkey....LoL

We have Turkey and the whole nine yards with it. A couple of times we've added Enchiladas and rice and beans (mexican family, obviously LOL).

There's one year, for some reason, we had chicken mole instead of turkey. Don't remember who decided that one, but it was the one year only.
