Anytime we get invited to Thanksgiving somewhere else, I cook the whole shebang a day or two later, it wouldn't be thanksgiving to me without leftovers! That and when we would go to his mother's, she'd cook the turkey too early and too long completely unseasoned served cold, most of the veg was canned as was the gravy. Once Rob had a real thanksgiving with some effort put into it, that wouldn't do.
Another fan of cooking leftovers myself. As much as I love my cousin, she and her DH's relatives cannot cook. They're also all vegetarian/gluten-free/paleo/whatever the food fad du jour is. We're lucky to get turkey. They have the most gorgeous kitchen with all the professional equipment that they have no clue how to use.
I bring the dressing, made from real bread. Gluten-free be hanged. I'm also debating whether to bring cranberry sauce and gravy. We have to travel 3 hours, everyone else lives nearby.
