Turkey and mashed potato's and gravy pizza!!! How was it?I feasted on some pizza
Turkey is not a big protein source here in South Africa. I think most people here find it just too tough. I have had it a few times at Christmas dinner, but thats about it

Poor South Africans, they don’t have any teeth! In all seriousness, turkeys are one of the hardest things to cook and cook well, especially whole, and they often get dry. I understand spatchcock-ing poultry is a game changer however. Our turkey was deep fried, juicy and cajun seasoned

I hate turkey too. I had spaghetti Os with meatballs!Turkey is not a big protein source here in South Africa. I think most people here find it just too tough. I have had it a few times at Christmas dinner, but thats about it
We don't have Thanksgiving, so I cant really speak to that holiday, but for Christmas we would normally do things like a roast leg of lamb, gammon, roast beef and maybe chicken. We would also have crispy roast potatoes, rice and an assortment of vegetables. I am a sucker for my moms roast lamb. It is strange that turkey isn't a bigger thing here, because South Africans like any sort of meat on a bone
If you want to do well opening a Takeaway joint, you cant go wrong with chicken. Any type of chicken. And we love having a braai (barbeque), so anything cooked over an open fire on coals or wood is a winner too. Last year we did a roast lamb in the Weber as part of Christmas lunch
Sound like a huge pot with a crapload of oil needs to be used to get that rightPoor South Africans, they don’t have any teeth!

Franco American has been a brand name under Campbell Soup since 1915. I must have been remembering the good old days.

Ok, how about this: Sweet Potato casserole is a dessert. Now this is a controversy!
What is the deal with sweet potatoes with marshmallows on top. That looks like an abomination!
