Stuffing has to be moist, with the right amount of egg and sage.

Actual stuffing, the bread and spices literally stuffed into the chest cavity of the most delicious woodland fowl.  Not StoveTop or whatever MeeMa shake and baked together in her Pam no stick pan and juicer.  

If you're about to defend stove top stuffing, stop, dont, then keep don'ting.

Agreed on all the above.

Not digging cranberry jelly from a can (double meaning there). Best thing about that is it keeps the shape of the can. That's also kind of disturbing. Whole cranberry sauce cooked on the stove is where it's at.

Warm pumpkin pie with homemade cool whip....oh frikking yeah.

Green bean casserole...yup.

Epstein was silenced because he wasn't going to keep his mouth shut. He spent 20+ years sliding out of trouble and he was going to use whatever he could to get out if it this time and his old buddies knew that. Lots of people "used to" be his friend, but still kept taking advantage of what he had to offer.

Turkey is the MVP front-runner for the Thanksgiving team. So you could say something like cranberry sauce, because it's almost impossible to do wrong, so it's always good, but it's not a game changer. But there's not a Thanksgiving meal that has ever been made or broken because of the salad, yeast rolls, sweet potato casserole, or mashed potatoes. If any of those supporting cast members are out for the year, you may struggle, but you can still make a deep playoff run.

The turkey the difference between a Super Bowl run and 0-16. So if it's carrying that much of the load, there's no way it's not the MVP.

The problem is, it's only a contender, and someone who doesn't know how to use Turkey's skill set is like a bad coach, or a bad GM. If you don't give turkey the right talent, or misuse it, the whole squad suffers. So if you think the breast meat is dry, or it's overcooked, or someone massacred it when slicing it, that's not the fault of the turkey, that's it being mishandled. Bad scheme, bad protection, bad supporting case, bad game plan. No main is gonna succeed in a system like that.

But you Bill Belichik that thing? Some compound butter with parsley, sage, thyme and bay leaves between the skin of the breast meat (not rubbed on the top), baste, cook to 165 on the breast meat (don't fug up and test the drummies), and properly carve it? Turkey, hands down the GOAT.

I’m gonna go with pumpkin pie just because I have a sweet tooth. Turkey is hit or miss although my wife hits every damn time. 

Pecan Pie > Pumpkin Pie.

Fight me.

Pee-can, obviously. If you say puh-kahn it is a clear indicator that you lack any soul.

I think if your family roots are deep in SC or GA you more than likely eat pee-can pie.  If not, it is a pretty easy bet you eat the knock off puh-kahn pie.

The two best Thanksgiving meals I ever cooked didn't have any turkey(and I am not anti-turkey, BTW). 

#1 Reverse seared prime rib, with horseradish sauce(from the root, insert innuendos as needed), vanilla bean whipped sweet potatoes, sweet potato casserole, and corn cakes with spiced cranberries.

#2 Roasted leg of lamb, sausage and apple stuffing bites, goat cheese stuffed mushrooms, REAL cranberry sauce, vanilla bean sweet potatoes and cranberry orange chutney.

Yep family originally from Jawja. Although part of it by way of Long Island.
