You telling us to season our turkey made me laugh. I cooked a full thanksgiving dinner for my parents for the first time in years, my mother is VERY particular with her food. She likes blandddd. BLAND. She normally just buys a turkey breast and just flops it into a roasting pan and shoves it into the oven for HOURS longer than she should. My dad has become so sick to the point that I’ve needed to move home to help them and my dad has been LIVING for food. He told me I could never move out again, he’d die from starvation 😂😂. When I tell you the shock on her face as I was shoving the butter I seasoned the night before under the skin of the turkey, I mean she was SHOCKED. Browning sausage for homemade stuffing blew her mind. Cherry coke and pineapple ham actually peaked her interest though (it ended up being her favorite). Her surprise was cute when I used the turkey drippings to make homemade gravy. Everything turned out amazing. She was so surprised at how good and juicy the turkey was. Our community gave out turkey’s for the holidays for elders, our family ended up getting three of them. My mom told me I couldn’t go back to Utah until I cooked all the turkeys. When my dad finished eating his dinner he made the cutest comment. “I obviously didn’t marry your mom for her cooking ability. Musta been how pretty she is.” I love those two 😂😂. I’m so happy I could express my love and appreciation for them through food and I’m given the opportunity to do so.

My mom always bought a few holiday foods every month. She would put aside can pineapple, can olives, can green beans, can cream soup, box stuffing mix, can cranberries, can mushrooms, butter, can pumpkin pie mix, etc. In November she'd buy the turkey, potatoes, and rolls. I always thought that was smart. She put it in a cardboard box and woe to anyone who took anything outta that box! 😂

Our little church pays for and delivers Thanksgiving meals to “shut ins”. (Meals on wheels doesn’t do this holiday meal). My husband and I are participating in our daughter’s Friendsgiving celebration. People that don’t have family are encouraged to attend. We are doing the turkey and dressing and corn casserole. Other people are bringing food also. It’s important to think outside the box. Although we are blessed and have big family gatherings, other people are not as fortunate. God bless everyone!

I love that practice too, although since we keep a "tiny grocery store" (a well-stocked pantry that we rotate) I don't usually have to buy anything in particular for the day except a turkey. If we couldn't get that, we'd still have turkey, because I have a bunch in jars that I've previously pressure-canned, so no worries! Do you usually have some of the "traditional" stuff?

I keep a very well-stocked food storage. So I definitely have all the supplies for the traditional foods my family eats. I always keep a turkey in my freezer. Simply because no matter how bad things get a turkey dinner always makes you feel like everything will work out and that bird will feed a large family for atleast a week! So all I really purchase is a little fresh produce and maybe a few dairy products.

I liked to buy a very big turkey for Thanksgiving and we were only 3 people and a big dog, no 12lb for my family.19-22lb. Baked my turkey in the roasting bags, those suckers were great, no basting. Do you know all the stuff you can make w those left overs. Turkey Tetrazzini, turkey pot pies, sandwiches w the turkey, sausage bread stuffing and mayo on 1 side and cranberry sauce on the other slice of bread…oh la la so yummy….Turkey Alfredo and hot turkey sandwiches and of course what my mom made was turkey w veg-all mixed w left over gravy over mashed potatoes. In the summer would do a turkey but season it w Italian spice w butter and it changes the flavor of the turkey (under the skin). Then serve it w pasta salad or potato salad, yum

Slow cooker! What a great idea. I brine off brand turkeys. I never had a dry turkey. One year we couldn't afford additional groceries. My mother-in-law and I decided a harvest feast doesn't require a turkey. We were going to use the blessings we stored in the freezers. Three days before we cooked I got a windfall I did buy a ham and turkey. That's all I bought. When we invited cousin to sit with us or get a plate he said no until he saw fried fish on the table. He was amazed with all the food we had. That's the true blessings of the Lord.

I've always had a Thanksgiving open house. I buy take out boxes for meals to go and share with as many people as possible. Thanksgiving 2020 we had 32 people come by for meals to go. It was one of the best experiences ever.

Tip for deviled eggs, if you have any messed up whites when you peal them add them to the yolk mix. Say you cut the egg in half and half is messed up just add it to the yolk mix. It’s adds a little more bulk to the filling without having to do much. And it still tastes amazing!! ☺️

If you like the Starbucks egg bite things, I would saute some veggies, and take 1 dozen eggs, a brick of soft cream cheese and 1 stick of butter and mix together and season well. Add the veggies and cheese if desired and bake in silicone molds. These freeze so well and taste amazing. And when I have a whole basket of eggs from my chickens, I use this recipe to get rid of it

Hi Brooke, What a yummy Thanksgiving Meal! Besides the traditional Southern sides and a Turkey or Ham, over the years we have done the non traditional meal fixings too, using what we had in the pantry, freezer ect! We have had Steaks, baked potatoes, salad, yeast rolls and the traditional pies, We have done homemade pizzas and salad, BBQ sandwiches, Cole slaw, potato salad, baked beans, and desserts! We have had a roast with potatoes, carrots. Onions, other vegetable sides,cornbread, pies! Spaghetti, big bowls of chili with cornbread muffins or a crusty loaf of homemade bread, a salad and desserts! Had Pans of Lasagna once too or how about everyone's Mexican favorites, or stroganoff, Steaming bowls of Homemade soup, vegetable, oyster stew, claim chowder, broccoli cheddar, potato, bean with ham or bacon, or whatever is a hit with your family! Or even less expensive, make omelettes, fruit, muffins, homemade biscuits and gravy, hash browns, fried potatoes,or even, pancakes, waffles, crepes, ect with fruit, preserves topped with whipped cream! The ideas are endless and you are still having a yummy meal with the family, friends or neighbors who mean the most to you! Another cost cutter would be, the host family make the turkey, ham, or main dish and have your guests bring a side dish, beverages, breads or a dessert! Lots of variety for everyone and a good pot luck dinner for all to enjoy! It is okay to keep it simple and not be so exhausted from cooking and cleaning that you end up too tired to enjoy the peoplegathered around your table! God Bless and wishing a very Happy Thanksgiving to you, your family and your subscribers Donna NE GA mtns

Amazing prices down there. Good for Southern Mama for her ability to budget! A turkey here costs $50-60 for a small frozen decent one. $80-90 for a turkey to feed 20. Free range is what we usually get. Too many preservatives make a few of us ill. However, I do make it all count and last because I have enough sides and flash freeze sliced turkey and the diced turkey for many meals afterward.

Excellent menu! 10 people for $22 is frugal. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

I love all of your videos so helpful. I have a family of 5 also. And 2 years ago I canceled all holidays at my house because everyone would come here and I cooked everything it’s stressful. So now I go to other family houses. I bring a dish of course. You’re doing an amazing job!! Again thank you and your family.

Happy Thanksgiving to you, @Erica Stout. Just hubs and me this year. I'm taking a couple slices of turkey from the deli (only purchase for T-Day this year) making a package stuffing I have on hand, using home canned green beans and home canned Cranberry sauce and turkey gravy I made...rolling the sides up in the deli turkey (burrito style) and covering with the gravy to bake. I saw it on another KZread video for leftovers. But I'm having surgery a week before, so we are choosing it for our meal. Whatever you choose for yourself, I hope your day is greatly blessed.

We call it "shopping at home" ! Always see what's available at home before going shopping. You did an excellent job of demonstrating just that!!!

I have chickens and I felt the need to tell you that if your eggs float, you need to throw them out. Floating eggs means they've gone bad and you can get really sick. It's not worth it. After you cook your turkey in the crock pot, just brown it in the oven or, if you have one, use a torch on it to brown it. I garden and so I blanch and freeze my veggies and mark the ones I want "Thanksgiving Green Beans" or whatever veggie it is. My fruit pies get made late October and put in the freezer unbaked. Then I bake them frozen a couple days before Thanksgiving. The sweet potato and pumpkin pies get baked and then frozen. You can peel your potatoes several days ahead of time, but keep them in water. I buy turkey necks and make my broth ahead of time and freeze it. I try to do as much as possible ahead of time so I can enjoy the meal with everyone else. Even though I try to economize, there's no way I can make Thanksgiving dinner For $25. That's the cost of the turkey. I know my comment is almost a year late, but maybe someone can learn from it.

The days, 73 with RA, Fibromyalgia, and a bad back, I cook my turkey the day before in a roasting bag. Like your crockpot turkey, not pretty but juicy and delicious. I cool it down a little, have hubby slice it, and lay it back in the roasting pan and cover with broth, which is a trick I saw on KZread that keeps the turkey from tasting "leftover". Day of, I heat it up just enough to make it hot and serve. Everyone loves it! Doing the same with a small ham. This year my oldest daughter is bring dressing, gravy, sweet potato casserole and my youngest daughter is bringing desert. I'll make the rolls using frozen roll dough. And I'll make a green been casserole because my son loves it. He's just bringing himself which is all I wanted because I haven't seen him in months.

I add mashed potatoes with dried bread crumbs .onion , summer savoury , poultry seasoning , celery salt stuff in turkey . I always make it the day before I put in the fridge

People need to know how to make quality food without spending a fortune. I saw you whip out that bacon and beans yourself and make your own mushroom soup. I am very impressed. Oh oh, before I forget, my Pap passed way 13yrs back, I haven't seen anyone hold an onion while holding it in their hand since then! I cried, that was a memory so precious to me! Thanks for your video, I loved, it!!! Bless you!

You can put your Turkey in an oven bag and put it in your oven that might be similar to the crockpot. When I make my Turkey I use a Turkey bag and I put, any leftover celery and onion into the cavity of my Turkey with a Granny Smith apple and a honeycrisp apple along with fresh Rosemary, thyme, sage and garlic. I then rub butter and all the seasonings under the skin of the Turkey and cover the Turkey with poultry seasoning. Put it in the bag and in the oven it goes. And it’s perfect every time.

My mother taught me to make my cornbread a day or two in advance and let it sit out to dry out too. That is a lot of food, my mother passed me the holiday baton about 12 years ago and with both my parents gone now it is my 3 children, my 3 grandchildren, myself, my husband and my brother every year and sometimes we invite friends to join us. We do our meal on the Saturday after thanksgiving because my husband and I work on thanksgiving day every year doing our side hustle seasonal job. I have learned that I don’t have to make as many dishes as we used to have I can make it simplified and my family still eats a lot and is happy. We usually have turkey(of course), mashed potatoes and giblet gravy, green beans with onions and bacon, sweet potatoes(for my hubby), salad, dressing in my mother’s enamel pan just like she cooked it in, homemade rolls and pies. My oldest son likes to bring green bean casserole too. Big surprise for me is that my 23 year old son asked if he could help me this year cook the dinner!! I said of course!! He said it’s time he started learning how to cook like that and I said HALLELUJAH!! Now to get my 16 year old daughter interested in it.

My Mother & my Mother-in-law always made Corn Bread & Biscuits to go in their Dressing. They both made the most moist & delicious Dressing.

I make all my sides in CrockPots with liners for easier cleanup. Mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, and my stuffing. The Turkey gets rinsed, dried, seasoned with salt and pepper, buttered and then covered in a bacon lattice blanket. A half onion and a couple carrots go in the turkey.... the bacon keeps it moist in the oven and you don't have to baste it. Turkey Bacon gravey is BOMB! I've stocked specifically for Thanksgiving and Christmas already. Then again, I also did Easter and St. Patrick's Day.

Thanksgiving is going to be hard for a lot of folks.

Your family is so sweet. It makes all the work worthwhile when you see those smiles.

I love watching your cooking videos. I didn't realize cream of soup was so simple!

We don’t have Thanksgiving in NZ. I’ve always found it fascinating what you eat at that holiday. Green bean casserole has at last been demystified! You could give any French housewife a run for her money with your flavour filled sides. Except for the garlic. I’m a European kiwi, so use lots of garlic, wine and olive oil in my cooking. That’s what I miss in yours, BUT you fill the gaps with lots of other delicious flavours. I must try some of these sides, perhaps even a whole USA thanksgiving dinner? Anyone can be a good cook with access to lots of excellent ingredients. But it takes a special cook who can produce good food, for the same people, year after year, day after day, with a very small budget and not go bonkers doing it! I really enjoy your videos. A view into real American life and culture. Thank you.😊

Those 2 little egg whites reminded me of my mom when she made homemade biscuits she always made me a baby biscuit even when I was older till she passed I miss my mom

For the dressing/Stuffing. my granny taught me use one can cream of celery and one can cream of chicken. Sauteed onions, three boiled eggs chopped. sage poultry seasoning salt an pepper. Mix in uour cornbread put in casserole dish add i cut broth bake until golden brown. So so good.. happy holidays. I love your videos☃️🎄🙏🕊️♥️

Absolutely one of the best videos out there. I love using what you have in your pantry!!

I loved this. It's something I think is missing from the budget holiday challenge menus so many people do. Everyone ends up with close to the same thing because they are all shopping with the same budget at the same places and there are only so many ways to rearrange that.

Gardens are a blessing .75 0/0 of our thanksgiving dinner came from ours.

Thank you Brooke for making a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. I watch a lot of the $20 dollar tree dinners they are fun to see what people come up with but I find it hard to consider turkey or ham lunchmeat as a traditional Thanksgiving meal. I do Thanksgiving like you I cook a ham and my mom makes the turkey and stuffing. I make the rest of the sides mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole,green bean casserole, Mac n cheese, corn, cranberry sauce, rolls, and ambrosia. Dessert my daughter wants to make a couple of pies and my mom was going to make a dessert so I think we have dinner covered I start picking up an item here and an item there for many weeks before Thanksgiving that way I am not trying to pick it all up on Thanksgiving. Great job Brooke!

A lot of work does indeed go into Thanksgiving Dinner preparations. I never thought about it till awhile back of all the work my Mom put into Thanksgiving preparations, then get up early to go black Friday Christmas shopping. On Saturday go shopping again, then the rest of the day get cakes baked decorated, jello made towards Sunday's big birthday dinner. After everything Mom is bound to been super tired. But, yet she seemed to enjoyed everything.

You worked really hard but the end result was amazing. I would love to sit down to a Thanksgiving dinner like this. Everything looks delicious, even the much-ridiculed turkey!

The deli turkey slices, wrapped around stuffing like a burrito, baked with gravy on top, and cranberry sauce on side...I feel like is a cheap option too. Also easier. Also easier to get probably.

The turkey looked great to me. People sometimes over cook their turkey to get the browning. You made great use of what you had.

When my daughters hens were laying like crazy, I showed her how to freeze her eggs. Whip them up and freeze into silicone ice cube trays. When fully frozen pop them out and store in a ziplock freezer bag. You can thaw them out a few at a time in the fridge and use them in recipes, or as scrambled eggs.

I made your poor man's chocolate poke cake Sunday night. WOW! Super easy. They loved it. It's all gone. It's a keeper. This family LOVES deviled eggs. My brother grabs one every time he walks by the plate.I tell everybody their spice cabinet is their friend. Don't be shy! SUPER MOM! Love the way you think.

This looks fantastic and delicious!!! Girl that is all homemade and full of love!! So wonderful! ❤❤❤

I LOVE this concept of using what you have for Thanksgiving sides, and I am speaking as someone who is absolutely obsessed with Thanksgiving KZread videos. I watch them all year long. 🤣

Also, I gotta say… your turkey IS beautiful. The whole meal looks terrific. I love your comfortable, relaxed cooking style.

Banana pudding poke cake has been my go to dessert for Thanksgiving for the last several years

YUM ❤ I’m making most of the dishes you made for my Thanksgiving dinner. Most items are coming from my freezer and pantry. ❤

I’m from 🇬🇧 and I have been celebrating thanksgiving since 2020. I lost my 9 year old little boy Oliver on the 2/10/20 to leukaemia. As a distraction for them o made the decision to celebrate thanksgiving. My children and myself have had a fascination with American culture and traditions just your way of life. I try my very best to cook traditional thanksgiving dishes as some of the ingredients I cant get over here. This year my daughter helped me and she actually cooked our chicken (turkey is traditionally for Christmas over here) and her first time cooking dinner biscuits which came out beautifully. I am not a women of airs and graces. I appreciate you being so authentic because you don’t get that much on here. I will one day safe up enough money to live over in America from June all the way through to the new year to just to experience all the holidays and traditions. ❤

Hi Brooke this is Sue, Keep your yeast in the freezer even packs, it prolongs the life of your yeast., Also, big money saver is, that, l noticed you had juice boxes in your fridge, what l did with my boys, is l bought a couple of those square juice containers with the fold down top with a straw, and l would buy cans of juice from the freezer, eg OJ, Minute Maid etc, and fill them up, way more juice than the boxes, and there is really no waste except the juice can container, compaired to all the boxes going into the recycling. Just a money saving thought,

What a personality! Brings a smile to my face.

Wow what a good meal u put together with just a few ingredients 😋😋😋

That turkey looks good cooked in the crockpot.😋😋😋😋👍👏

You are a great cook. I love your bakeware too. And the cutting board. Very nice. Your food looked great I really like the idea of making my own cream of mushroom soup

Look at you making your own French fried onions. Way to go girl.

You can beat the eggs like you would for scrambling and then freeze them. I do 4 at a time in a freezer bag. Some people freeze them in ice trays.

You are an amazing woman to fix all those foods from your pantry and cupboards! I’m a fan ! Great video!

Deviled eggs are a MUST at all our big family get together meals… my mama was the one who always made them … now my daughter makes them and uses her recipe… sure miss her at the table … daddy too… Hope all your meals this holiday season is delicious and full of love!! ❤️

Great ideas… raid freezers and pantry and cabinets. Now you talking.👌🏽. Thanks dear.❣️

Thanks for this Brooke! I grew up in the States but live in the UK now as my hubby is English. I like to cook a Thanksgiving dinner however - on a Saturday tho as I usually am at work on the actual day since they don't celebrate the holiday here. lol - I am going to try your cream skillet corn with my dinner this year as it looks so yummy!! So does the green bean casserole! Actually, it all looks wonderful! From my family to yours, have a wonderful Thanksgiving and God Bless!!

I work at a grocery store and we have a 10 pound bag for 99 cents. Yup crazy we are known for the best produce in town.
