What's your favorite Thanksgiving food?
While I love mashed potatoes, in my family it's heresy to serve it with poultry. Rice and gravy, baby!
But the *dressing* (cornbread) is probably my favorite...
Oh, and the mashed sweet potatoes get dosed with a brown sugar/butter/bourbon mixture before the mini-marshmallows go on top.

No question about it, the stuffing. Has to be homemade, with lots of onions. And slathered with homemade gravy (my mom's recipe).
Next, mashed potatoes, similarly slathered.
The turkey is only important for 2 reasons: (1) without the turkey, there wouldn't be pan drippings to serve as the base for the gravy. and (2) you need the turkey for the sandwiches for the the rest of the Thanksgiving weekend.
Pies are good, especially apple with real vanilla ice cream. But so are brownie sundaes - got to get some chocolate in there somewhere...
Happy eating, everyone!
