It's even better the next day, cold on a turkey sandwich with stuffing and yellow mustard. The soup and milk congeal a bit forming a savory green bean custard. Man I can't wait.

You should cut the cold casserole into squares, bread it and deep fry it the next day. It couldn't possibly make it taste any worse. That's the kind of thing that would kill at the Wyo State Fair.

Green Bean Casserole is a delicate melody of tastes and textures. While I'm usually in favor of deep fat frying most anything, GBC is far too elegant for the fryer.

The other major menu item for clan landpoke is, surprise surprise, booze. It's become a competition between my dad, brother and me to see who can come up with the most interesting libation. Fall is a brown liquor season so it generally ends up being rare bourbon or scotch. This is in addition to the assorted wines pre and during dinner and the port, muscat and ice wine with dessert.
Post dinner scotch/bourbons and cigars are also part of the rotation.

My dad does a smoked turkey every thanksgiving. It is by far the best way to eat that bird. I love smoked turkey. You should definitely undermine the operation by smoking bird.

Honestly, the thought of cooking that whole meal for my in-laws makes me feel tired and a little depressed. I think I'm bah-humbugging it through this Holiday season.
I did think of a fun Thanksgiving tradition my grandma had when she was a alive. She made these awesome Parker House rolls, and one year she accidentally baked her (used) band-aid into one of them. My aunt was the lucky recipient. It became a tradition to bake a band-aid into one roll from then on. |

My FIL doesn't like turkey. One of the best things we ever had was a rib roast with a Yorkshire pudding. Very decadent, however.
