Among many things, today I am thankful for the community here, past and present, from whom I have learned so much over the years.

A few pics from the feast today....

Picked out some libations:

Pretty sure I picked up this "ice the turkey breast" trick here some years ago:

Made my base for gravy with the heart and neck (added drippings from the turkey later):

14.5 lb turkey was done in 2.5 hours at 325 (about an hour earlier than predicted.....brined the bird in the basic brine):

Everything was quite tasty, and we get to do it again with the rest of the family on Sunday! :)

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!

Beautiful cook Rich, and some really nice spirits! You nailed that cook
 
Looks fabulous Rich. Wonderful Thanksgiving meal. Love the wine selection. Geyserville is my old stomping ground, back when it's population was around a thousand folks and Italian Swiss Colony was the only winery within miles.
 
And you get to do it all over again Sunday. What could be better than that. Job well done Rich.

The area has changed a bit, eh, Cliff? Geyserville is one of my favorite Ridge Zins, though the Lytton Springs next to it in the photo is my all time favorite.

Beautiful turkey and some very nice Zin... had Ridge once and it was wonderful stuff. Costs the earth up here.
