Thanksgiving Ham or Turkey?
« on: November 22, 2013, 11:51:20 am »
My family has been doing both the last few years, they both taste so good. What does your family have for thanksgiving?

I don't eat ham, so we only do turkey. We are actually doing brisket this year as well.

My family has been doing both since before I can remember and I carried the tradition from my mother.   :)

We do both, And both are good. My family all like left overs. Which is really great, as i know some people will not eat any leftovers. What a shame. You can do so much with them.

Thanksgiving has always been about the turkey in my house. Never anything else. Love the turkey. It is my favorite meal. Can't wait for turkey Day! :turkey: :wave:

Growing up, my family did both ham and turkey because some of my family doesn't like ham and some doesn't like turkey.
Now that I'm grown and have my own Thanksgiving, we typically either do just one big turkey, or a medium turkey and a small ham.
I love turkey!!!

We always cook turkey.  When my grandmother was alive we would have both for Thanksgiving, because not everyone liked having turkey.  Over the years we eliminated the ham since the family has shrunk in size, and everyone is spread out and they don't all want to travel.

We don't eat ham this year.  So we have turkey and roast beef this year.  Wish everyone a wonderful holiday.

We eat both ham and turkey but this year we will eat ham. Sometimes we switch it up instead of having turkey all the time

We don't eat pork so it's always turkey.

I don't celebrate holidays, it just a way for merchandisers to make money during these times of year.  Besides why do we have to be thankful just one day a year I would rather meet family and do things with them as often as much as we can.  But I do like Ham (which a make a good ham with my special homemade glaze everyone who has tried it loves it.  Turkey the only thing I like is the dark meet and don't care for white meet because it is usually really dry.
