Our twist on Thanksgiving!

 

 

It has almost been a week since Thanksgiving and I have been trying to recoup from that and Christmas shopping! 

 As always, our Thanksgiving was a hit! We had so much food and everyone that was able to come had so much fun! This was one of our best Thanksgivings yet!  We are so lucky to have such an amazing group of friends (who are family) and family every year!

 

So, this year we wanted to do something nontraditional for Thanksgiving. We decided to make a turporkin! Yes, that is a turkey, with pork and chicken!! I have to admit I was so nervous when making this and cooking this. It turned out to be the best turkey I have ever had!! The gravy was also amazing! All the flavors and it was so juicy! 

 

  We had to de-bone the 20lb turkey. Then we started stuffing and layering! First layer was stuffing so the shape of the turkey would start to come back. Then it was layers of bacon (pork) and chicken! Tur(key)Pork(Chick)en!

 

We had a lot of meat leftover. I decided to make Thanksgiving leftover rolls. This was a lot more challenging then I thought it would be. In the end they were delicious and we even had some leftover cranberry sauce from my bacon wrapped stuffing balls to dip them in! 

 

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Now on to Christmas stuff!!!
