I'm making the following for 23 people, about 8 of them kids...
- 4 boneless turkey breasts on the smoker
- Turkey gravy (flour, chicken stock, butter, seasonings)
- Green bean casserole (Green beans, cream soup of your choice, milk, soy sauce)
- Mashed potatoes (Russet spuds, half-and-half, butter, chives)
- Scratch dinner rolls (Flour, yeast, eggs)
- Pumpkin pie (Canned pumpkin, 9" pie crust, ginger, cloves, cinnamon, brown sugar, evaporated milk)
My "middle age" girlfriend per @ICHawk24 is making salads and baked goods.

Is it really Turkey Gravy if you're using chicken stock? Sounds like an imposter to me.

A few years ago I started doig those boneless turkey breasts on the smoker because a full turkey was too much of a pain in the ass and lot's of it gets tossed. That and it hogs the oven too long when I could be doing other stuff. Downside is I don't get any drippings to use for gravy.
You're correct, I'm a fraud.

Skipped the pumpkin this year and went cherry, apple, and coconut cream. Oldest son is doing a deep fried turkey and I am providing a spiral ham, stuffing, etc. Yes it's deer season! I saw a doe running across a field with a buck in hot pursuit. The next day I saw two bucks fighting on a tee box on a near by golf course!!! Really cool to see!!!!!

I have an outdoor turkey fryer that I bought for fish frys and always wanted to try a turkey but I’m too chicken shit. I don’t trust myself not to make a 30’ mushroom cloud in my backyard.
Lemme know how it turns out!

Envy you. I’m a huge seafood person. If I lived on the coast I don’t know if I’d ever eat beef.

Do it. Best turkey I've ever eaten. Couldn't believe how good it was.
