    @Mattman3969 daaang I almost forgot all this goodness. 

    And @thetrim I feel like this is a sign that you should host this year’s Throwdown.

    Sausage Cornbread Gravy Waffles with poached eggs. Yellowbird Habanero to open up the sleepy eyes. Works for me!




    Yellow bird is a few miles from me. They are good folks. This looks amazing by the way.

    I made a turkey sandwich with mayo, lettuce, and bread and butter pickles on white bread. 
    I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

    Thx!  I love poachers and have tried every trick in the book to get them right — I’ve added white vinegar to the water, swirled the water ifast before dropping in the eggs, unshelled  the eggs into a dish before putting them in, etc. After lots of trial and even more error, I crack them directly into a swirling saucepan of strongly simmering water (no vinegar) and leave them for no more than 3 minutes. But the big difference maker is removing them onto paper towels to “dry off” a bit before eating. I gently flip them over so the excess water gets absorbed by the towels. That little rest period really seems to let the whites firm up w/o doing any violence to the yolks. 

    And @The Cen-Tex Smoker we LOVE yellowbird here. My son discovered it little eyedropper-sized bottles and we were hooked immediately. Somewhere along the line we found the big bottles with the same dropper-like opening and it’s become our go-to.  As the kids say, it’s “dope!”

    Thanks @HendersonTRKing.  It seems that we could have paired our leftovers for a great meal.

    Pan fried (lightly) a couple sections of bone in pork roast with mole seasoning. Served with left over SC hash and rice. Added some baby limas (butter beans) for sumpin green. 
    Y’all eat well.

    Good grief.
    I had no idea most of this thread was a bump from two years ago, until I saw a BGEBrent post....  :|
    Will still post my sammich idea on Monday (still have enough gravy to repeat today's meal, I waited until Saturday for TG).

    I had a turkey, greenbean casserole, pancake with gravy.  Weird, but good.

    Lunch today, Thanksgiving tortilla pizza.  Red sauce with gravy, dressing, mashed potato, turkey and shredded cheese mix.  This was a fail.  The gravy didn't go well with the red sauce in mashed potatos are no good this way.  Hey, they can't all be winners.

    Turkey reubens. Traditional (kraut) and Cali (slaw). OMG so good. And so much better than tomorrow’s tetrazzini is going to be. 


    Looks good.  I love tetrazini, and that was in the plan, but I am running out of turkey after yesterday's gumbo.

    No, they can't all be winners, but posting failed experiments helps us ALL learn; thanks!

    Coincidentally, I was also thinking about Thanksgiving pizza today, but got *SQUIRREL!*

    Thanks for the intel. You don't find winners without a few losses along the way.

    I’m down to chopping up what’s left and putting it on a bagged salad. A heavy vinegar dressing should knock out the pathogens, right?
