Damnit now I need a grilled cheese as well.

Mac and cheese is the best Thanksgiving food and you can not change my mind
And I mean a good Mac n cheese made in the oven so its crispy and shit
-
My Granny used to make it from scratch in the oven, and we all loved it. She shared the recipe with me and I was able to make it like hers before she passed. I don't make it for Thanksgiving, but I should. I do make one of her other dishes for Thanksgiving. It's a broccoli and cauliflower dish with a sauce and melted cheese. It's amazing.

Is it really stuffing if it's never used to stuff anything? 🤔
-
No, technically that is dressing

My kid was all about that packaged bread today lol

I feel called out... Bless my grandma and my mom for giving me a chance to taste things during family dinners but having a backup because they knew I wouldn't like anything.

What about duck, roasted for an hour and served with a nice side of gravy.
-
Takes about 2 hours for a duck roast.
Source: will be roasting duck imminently

You should cook it to an internal temperature of 165f or 74c instead of a set time...sorry, the Internet has ruined me. I'm so alone.

Ideal temperature for killing bacteria is more of a spectrum than a hard set number. 165°F is the USDA recommendation because it's idiot-proof. Guarantees that all bacteria will be instantly killed.
But if you pull the bird at 165°F, you've already overcooked the meat and dried out all the juices. Personally I take my poultry out at 150°F, let it sit and naturally rise to 155-157°, and so long as it stays at or above 155 for more than 90 seconds, it's perfectly safe to eat. The number is more like 45 seconds IIRC but I double it just to be safe. Been doing it this way for over a decade and it's never gotten anyone sick.

Agreed, which is why I bought a digital thermometer and prob my bird multiple times in different locations and depths to make absolutely sure of this.
Turkey takes hours depending on the size and weight. Chicken is a bit less.
Ducks are usually about five or six pounds and very fatty which means they cook a bit faster than most other birds. I don't normally roast them myself, I cut them into chunks and make a duck soup or stew.
..... and a critical skill for any would be Thanksgiving chef out there .... LEARN TO MAKE TASTY SAVOURY GRAVY! It doesn't matter how well you cook your turkey, chicken or duck, if you don't make a good gravy with it, it won't be fun for anyone.

Why the vegetarian thanksgiving?
-
Because they're ducks. Ducks aren't an evil predator species like humans. The most meat they tend to eat is bugs.
