With all the separate Thanksgiving recipe threads, maybe we should make a Thanksgiving megathread

I just think it's not particularly productive for everyone to be posting separate threads for every thanksgiving idea. It makes more sense to have all the recipes centrally located, that way there's a bunch of options for someone looking for a Thanksgiving recipe and people don't have to keep commenting the same thing on multiple Thanksgiving related threads. What say the rest of you? Good idea or bad?

Every year I use Alton Brown's turkey recipe. I've made several turkeys up to 25lb (in less than 3 1/2 hrs cooking time!) that remained moist using this method. One note I have is that I've done it both with and without a brine and I don't find it to make much of a difference. I personally make my own rosemary butter and then coat the turkey with it liberally under the skin. I think this gives it a better flavor than just with canola oil.



bon appetit
