This year will be special for us, the first time in awhile all our children & our grandson will be here, at the same time. My oldest daughter & husband from Indiana, Our daughter from Illinois and our son, wife & their son from Las Vegas, Nevada. We will also be having our Christmas.
I decided to be a little untraditional this year. I smoked a 14 lb beef brisket over a week ago & decided if it turned out good I would vacuum pack & freeze. It turned out great so I will just have to heat in a Crockpot with some beef broth and have sandwiches from it. I will have cheesy scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole, & fresh corn pudding. The corn was cut from the cob, vacuum packed & frozen from this summer’s corn.
My appetizers will be a veggie platter with dip, smoked pistachios, mixed nuts, pomegranate salsa, smoked Cajun crackers and some hot cheese dip with corn chips. The dip I made from a can of Rico’s white Queso Blanco cheese, a can of Skyline Cincinnati Style Chili, 2 heaping tablespoons of Kraft Philly cooking cream, Santa Fe flavor, and about a cup of shredded Mexican cheese blend.
Our desserts will be a pumpkin roll; my wife bought from her little sister. She was selling them for her school class. I am making a cream cheese peach cobbler & will serve it with some cool whip.
I will post some photos later. Happy Thanksgiving!
Our Thanksgiving meal is all over, all turned out good. Well all except I missed photos of my plate somehow. I thought I took 2 photos but they didn't get recorded on the card. Here are a few of the photos I did get.
