Turkey, Brines & Gravy

Everything you need to get the bird right, from a big-flavor brine and a spicy turkey rub to roasted turkey legs and turkey wings.

Turkey Gumbo, Stew & Leftover Favorites

Leftover turkey is the start of some of the best meals of the week. These recipes take those leftovers and turn them into gumbo, stew, and sweet potato hash, with a hearty turkey chili for good measure.

Stuffing, Dressing & Breads

No Thanksgiving table is complete without something to soak up the gravy. We've got Southern cornbread dressing, sausage stuffing, and oyster dressing, plus jalapeño cornbread, muffins, and cheddar biscuits for the bread basket!

Potatoes, Sweet Potatoes & Mac and Cheese

Creamy, cheesy, and with enough spice to keep it interesting, these are the sides people fill their plates with first. With chipotle sweet potatoes, Tex-Mex mashed potatoes, scalloped potatoes, and a few mac and cheese recipes worth fighting over.

Vegetable Sides

Hot honey carrots, sriracha Brussels sprouts, smothered green beans, and Southern collard greens give the vegetable side of the table plenty of flavor.

Pumpkin, Squash & Fall Soups

Pumpkin and butternut squash are made for this time of year. These recipes include creamy soups, a pumpkin chili, roasted pumpkin, spiced pumpkin seeds, and a butternut squash curry for something a little different.

Cranberry Salsas & Pepper Jelly

Cranberries and chile peppers are a better match than you might expect. Try a fresh no-cook cranberry salsa, the cooked version, or a sweet and spicy jelly that works as a spread, a glaze, or something to spoon over cream cheese.

Holiday Roasts, Ham & Other Main Dishes

Everyone is doing a turkey, so why not add something different to the table? Glazed ham, prime rib, stuffed flank steak, and slow-cooked roasts all make a great centerpiece for the holiday meal.

Dips & Spreads

Set one of these out while the turkey finishes resting and watch it disappear. These dips and spreads are creamy, spicy, and easy to make ahead of time.
