We like to brown our flour first. It’s also important to use drippings from the bird.

We whisked the hot drippings into the browned flour. Avoiding lumps, blending smoothly then heating until thickened.

Thanksgiving day was lovely and exhausting. Fabulous food and family all day long! We put the turkey in the oven by 10am after rubbing it with butter, salt and fresh sage.

We stayed hydrated with this lovely ale, and plenty of water, of course!

We roasted garlic for the mashed red potatoes.

The green bean casserole was cheesy, garlicky goodness!

The stuffing was fresh and loaded with flavor and was a big hit.
