**** Green Bean Casserole!.....and other fun Thanksgiving discussions.
 

With Thanksgiving fast approaching, I just wanted to take a moment and say **** your GBC and anyone who swears it's the premier side dish at any Thanksgiving dinner.

90% of the time it's ****ing canned cream of mushroom soup, canned green beans, and processed fried onion straws. ****ing garbage. And even when people try and church it up with fresh ingredients, it can still eat a bag of dicks. It sucks. Case closed.


That being said, I love you all, and want to hear about your Thanksgiving dishes. What are your favorite sides? How do you prepare your turkey? If you don't do turkey, what is your main dish?

Did yall know that SNR prefers semen over both Mayonnaise and Miracle Whip?

Green Bean!!!!!!!!

I'm actually not a fan of turkey but we're going to try a smoked turkey this year. Typically I prefer a nice honey ham.

Mac n cheese is the only side I truly give a shit about. Love mashed taters, broccoli and cheese is good, stuffing is great, but if there's no mac n cheese, I ain't showing up!

Thanksgiving was last month you weirdos.

For some reason i read the thread title as "Ever **** a green bean casserole?"

I'm deep frying a turkey for the first time this year.

I agree about GBC. I wouldn't even teabag it, because I wouldn't want that filth on my balls.

If you don't like green bean casserole, you can KISS MY ASS

I don't mind turkey, I just don't cook it for Thanksgiving. Prime rib > turkey.

Hell yeah **** yeah. Ham before turkey, even.

I make it every year. To me it's not Thanksgiving without the traditional dishes. Turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and turkey gravy, rolls, corn and green bean casserole are all must have dishes. Anything other than those staples are ok if someone wants to bring them.
Ham is for Christmas

OP's points were not only valid, but T R U T H! Green bean casserole is heinous. Might as well serve liver & onions & a big bowl of boiled spinach, aka pond scum, as well. ****ing vile.

Turkey, dressing (sage dressing made from white bread & chicken stock w/ lots of celery & onion = the tits!), mashed potatoes & gravy. Staples for the Thanksgiving feast. Everything else is secondary (although the cheesy potato casserole is damn close to a staple dish). A couple of years I have made Michael Mina's roasted brussel sprouts. They stink to high heaven but dear lord are they good.

Turkey prep = rotisserie frier. Peanut oil. So good.

See to me Thanksgiving is more about getting together with family and having a special meal and to me a bird that sells for $1-$1.50 a pound is not special.

The fact that it was at the first Thanksgiving and that I only make it once a year makes it special to me. To each their own though. I know a lot of people who hate pumpkin pie, but that one or two slices I eat a year makes it special to me too. It's just not Thanksgiving without certain things
