I get so anxious when it's 2 days before Thanksgiving and people are asking about defrosting their 15 pound turkey.

YOU NEED ONE DAY FOR EVERY 4 POUNDS TO SAFELY DEFROST IN YOUR FRIDGE.

If your turkey is still frozen, and it's more than an 8 pound bird, consider keeping it frozen and buying a thawed/fresh turkey instead. You probably want it thawed by tomorrow anyway, so you brine it, right?

@amtwo avoiding all this drama with a brisket
@AgnesoftheDogs I'm doing deer!! 🦌
@amtwo Seriously?

@AgnesoftheDogs ayuh.

Kenji's Dad hunts.

@amtwo Venison is tasty. How are you preparing it? What are your sides?
@AgnesoftheDogs this is my menu!
@amtwo @AgnesoftheDogs I made a “Venison Bourguignon” once and used wild boar bacon for the lardons - recommended for another time you get venison.

@kitzfuhel @AgnesoftheDogs there's more in the freezer! Both houses have deer in the freezer!

I left most of the stew meat up there for a snowy weekend. 🦌❄️

@amtwo @kitzfuhel Can you get good green chile up there? Hatch, not that canned shit. Anaheims or even poblanos could work. Because venison makes a wicked green chile stew.
@AgnesoftheDogs @amtwo @kitzfuhel believe it or not, Hatch green chile is available all over the place now! I used to live in NM, and was afraid I'd miss out, but the chain grocery store less than 2 miles from my house in Ohio carries it now (for a limited time window)!
@mikebaz @amtwo @kitzfuhel That’s great! You should make that green chile stew, it’s delicious. So simple and just perfect.
