Jeff, have you ever smoked a whole turkey? I've smoked a turkey roast and it turned out pretty well. My MIL has an iron-grip over the T-Day menu, which is fine by me, but I do think I'll smoke a few Turkey breasts and undermine her whole operation.

Great trivia game idea, if you're buying one:
Wits and Wagers Essentially, everyone turns in an answer and you make bets on whose you think is correct. It's a good equalizer because it's just as easy (or easier) to win by winning the bets than by answering the questions correctly. |

I get no fight from my MIL. My late FIL used to smoke turkeys every year as long as anyone can remember. I am not sure anyone in my wife's family would even eat a non-smoked turkey.

I like landpoke's puzzle idea. Folksy, but still fun. Might not fly with lots of little dudes running around the house, though.

My MIL makes it every year. I hate it.

That reminds me when my in-laws had a Japanese family over for their first Thanksgiving dinner. They tolerated the turkey, and seemed confused by the gravy and especially the stuffing. Their kids wolfed down the steamed broccoli though.
