JTJet Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Thankful for all you knuckleheads this year, while the year has been a sh*t show from start to finish (oh AND the Jets season has been as well), this board is a needed reprieve sometimes. Any favorite turkey day memories? Football stories? Any movies to recommend over the long weekend? Couple buddies and I rented an AMC theater for black friday to do a private showing of National Lampoons: Christmas Vacation, having some of our friends who experienced canceled turkey day plans bring their families.

The AMCs here do serve beer, but not sure how it works for theater rental. To rent an entire theater and select from a list of 20 previous released movies, it's only like 100 bucks, new movies are like 250. You can have 20 people in the theater.

Defense Wins Championships Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family JTJet. My mom, my two older sisters, my wife and my brothers wife will all be in the kitchen tomorrow preparing for a feast while our daughters all soak up knowledge from the woman of our family while me, my older brother and my nephews will be throwing down on the grill I'm hungry just thinking about it ahhhh my favorite Thanksgiving game ever was 1998 I was only 13 in middle school I remember Randy Moss going off as a rookie and that game had our household in South Ozone Park Queens going crazy (I miss those days of Queens) my family always rooted against Dallas one of the best shootouts ever that's by far my most memorable Thanksgiving game (even moreso than 2010's Jets win over Cincinnati). This game ever since my childhood days always stuck with me as Thanksgiving memories. Edit; Looks like that game left a lasting memory on a lot of us!!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Thanksgiving I had to look it up - the Jets are 1-3 on Thanksgiving in my viewing lifetime. 26-10 over Cincinnati in 2010 being the only bright spot. Most memorable football memory? Two words.

jetophile Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I got up at 6 a.m. and I'll probably still be cooking at 10 p.m. That's OK, I really enjoy it; and the Negronis start at 6 p.m. I'll post some pictures later! Fck pictures of the pies! Pictures of the Negronis! P..S.: I have some great Thanksgiving fare on right now. Christopher Lee's 'Dracula'! I have a Halloween hangover. I watch horror movies during the most pagan day of the year, too! Christmas! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense Wins Championships Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Thanksgiving has always been a I wouldn't say a sad day for me but a day where I miss ALL of my family being together in one home. When we left Queens for Florida my family got separated there used to be 23 of us living in one home in South Ozone Park of Queens we lived on the same street as PS 100 on 118th 10 adults and 13 kids (1 older brother 2 older sisters and the rest my cousins from three aunts) and my grandma was still alive but after moving to Florida one of my aunts and her husband and my cousins stayed in NY and moved to Brentwood, another one of my aunts and her husband and my cousins moved to NC and my other aunt and her husband my cousins moved to Orlando 2 hours away from us here in St. Pete and my uncle who I'm named after the only son of my grandmother moved to NJ and ever since moving to Florida Thanksgiving is the day where I MISS my family childhood memories the most and wouldn't change those days for the life of me and would give anything to get them back the 9 adults under my Grandmother were able to save a crazy amount of money over the years and as kids I miss all the fights we'd get into over video games ahhhh I miss those times and Thanksgiving makes me thankful for everything my grandmother and family sacrificed for us as kids in Queens to one day have better lives with homes of our own; happy Thanksgiving JN!

Beerfish Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Canadian thanksgiving is about the 2nd week of October. I used to celebrate it and then take the day off work and celebrate American thanksgiving and have another turkey and watch football all day. Then there is Christmas, I managed to pull of Turkey dinner feasts in October, November and December. I freaking love turkey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munchmemory Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Just took stuffing for tomorrow out of the oven. Made a pumpkin pie and chocolate cake earlier. Also have my vegetables blanched and potatoes peeled and in water (refrigerated) for tomorrow. Roasting various chicken parts tomorrow as we prefer it over turkey. Getting too old for the cooking cleanup extravaganza. Relaxing now with a nice French Malbec. With so many people hungry and ill, especially thankful this year for everything I have on this earth. Wishing you all and your families a very safe and Happy Thanksgiving. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Do you all brine your turkeys? I finally tried that about 2 years ago and became totally sold on it. It seemed to really make a difference in how juicy it was, even being very well cooked. (I like to make sure all fowl is really well cooked.)

JTJet Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 Yes deep fried turkey. Once you go deep fried, you never, ever go back to using an oven.

68JET11 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Here's wishing all my JETS brothers and sisters a very Happy Thanksgiving Holiday. No special stories from me, just down here in GA visiting my mom with my wife. I'm making Italian Turkey this year since there are only the 3 of us. Just in case some of you don't know what Italian Turkey is, it's Lasagna. Happy Holiday everyone. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
