I had so many grand plans for my Thanksgiving post. A reflection on all the things I am so grateful for, my plans for sharing that appreciation with my kids and the lovely meal plans I was to prepare.
But instead, potty training, colds and a cat emergency consumed the last week. So before I pass out from exhaustion and my sister's hot whiskey/honey cold killer I will leave you with the most amazingly awesome recipe I have ever found to replace the traditional turkey.
Behold! Heaven for your mouth being hugged by a warm blanket of bacon. I will never cook a whole turkey again.
This recipe is super easy, but be warned you need to read ALL the instructions first and get your schedule down. Unless of coarse you want to partake in the most common of holiday traditions to announce dinner will be at 2 except, not really, you will eat at 6:30…
And my recommended changes - add more bacon, brine for only 1 hour and if you don't like a little spice, cut down on the chili pepper.
