My Dad passed away a week ago so we are having a hard time trying to decide what to do about Thanksgiving. Mom is homebound so we are unable to go out and have no near realitives. Mom likes white meat and I like dark. I have talked to the butcher and he has told me that he can split a fresh turkey in half for me. Has anyone ever done this? How should I cook it if I decide to do this?
At first I was thinking that I would make a bed of dressing to bake the bird on but fear this would be greasy because of the drippings. Also there would be no pan drippings for the gravy.
A friend suggested the crock pot but I do not think a half would fit in our crock. Again we would not have drippings for gravy.
Anyone????
