It's at our house this year, so I make the meat, and others bring everything else. Saturday, I ordered and put down a deposit at the butcher for a whole beef tenderloin to pick up the day before. The butcher will trim it, cut it into two parts, and truss it. That goes on the charcoal rotisserie. And I'll roast a small turkey in the oven.
Now, while I was checking out prospects for some turkey parts to use in making up basting broth and gravy ahead of time, I saw turkey tails, which my grocery hasn't been carrying before. They're so cheap, I figured to use them. But now that I look around, I see so many good sounding recipes for tails and so many compliments on the meat, I might have to buy double and make one batch up braised. Kind of reminds my of my young adulthood when we would get together and buy a bunch of chicken backs, because they nearly gave them away, but they had that perfect "oyster" meat part.
