Tamales are a finished.
Rumpope is made.
Pasole is done.
Two kinds of ham. An edible one and then one of those uncooked six month dry hung ungodly shank halfs. The dry aged is for my dad(preston county, West By God Virginia) he really plays up the hillbilly thing. That ham'll choke a goat, but he'll say he loves it.
Hell, everyone always says the dinner items are better the day after, so this all (except that ham) should be well aged and perfection.
All that's left to do is a raisin pie and a pecan pie. The others are made.
My dressing:
Corn bread cubes equal White bread cubes
Standard poultry seasoning
A couple of chopped apples
Pine(Pinon) nuts
A couple of pounds of browned crumbled breakfast sausage
Cayenne
Celery
Onion
Squat load of butter and chicken broth.
Cooked seperate from the turkey.
Always consistent.
I used to stuff the damn thing and put up with that mess and the liquid, but no more.
Turkey is now stuffed with little red potatoes and parmesan, quartered. The Turkey fat sure makes those some great potatoes.
Here's wishing you Happy days of your choice of names and affliction.
And
I'll trade you relatives, your two for my one, any time you've had enough.
