I’ve become the sous chef for my mother, pretty much ever since my grandma passed. My mom is an excellent cook, and does a great job. But she needs some help haha so I’ll do all the prepping that she doesn’t like to do. Doesn’t bother me any
How about you? Do you help cook/prepare the meal?
I’ll get roped into duties I’m sure. My dad said he’s cooking (he’s not a good cook) so we will see what happens haha
I used to help my mom prepare the Thanksgiving meal when i lived with my parents. Now i live alone and just go to my clubhouse on the day before Thanksgiving for their meal. But I’m excited this year, as a couple from my church invited me to their house on actual Thanksgiving. I won’t be alone.
This year I’ll cook the entire meal for myself. Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables and yams. I’ll cheat and use instant stuffing and mashed potatoes. And I’ll open a can for the cranberry sauce and yams. Plus a frozen pumpkin pie.
I make the turkey and the desserts, my family makes yams, ham, stuffing, Mac and cheese, etc.
@77nick77 good work man, enjoy your meal!
@cigarino Mac and cheese is one thing I wish we had with our meal. my mom is making cranberry sauce this year, first time in a long time
I’m glad you have some company this year. Enjoy your Thanksgiving! @WhiteRaven
I help put away the food ( lol, get it? )
I definitely help.
Heck, I’m responsible for basically the whole thing.
I’m also very good at that lol
It’s tough putting the meal together, for sure. Props to you!
My mom, my two sisters and I are all splitting the cooking and baking. My mom is baking the pumpkin and apple pies, my sister is cooking the turkey and gravy, my other sister is doing the potatoes and I am making the cranberry sauce and the green bean casserole.
Team work makes the dream work! Sounds good!
Yes I am my dad’s prep cook I do all the chopping.
I did things like anytime the turkey had to be moved I did that…like from the frig to the kitchen for prep, or putting it in the oven…I kind of bought too big of a turkey for us…but it fit in the roasting pan…shew…23 lbs. ha like i said, too big. but I peeled a bag of potatoes too…she did all the rest…she worked hard on the mashed potatoes and I opted for store bought gravy this year…so much easier.
Just had a big plate of leftovers…yum!
