They used to do that here before COVID, now they don't go lower than about $0.37 around here.

Limit of 1 per purchase, so there is a bit of a trade off I suppose. Was 2 last year.
Cheapest in my area is $8 per bird, regardless of weight, with $50 purchase but that's at fucking GrossOut. My family wouldn't ever eat anywhere near $50 with of anything from there. It's all cheap, near or just beyond expiration stuff. When I was last there, they were selling recently expired boxes of toaster strudel for 50¢ each. How in the shit am I gonna get to $50 when we
1) don't eat a lot of prepackaged food
2) have plenty of other meat in the freezers already and
3) buy our produce elsewhere because we're eThNiC?
So yeah, best I can do is 69¢/lb at ShopRite (with $100 purchase) which isn't easy, either. We're likely either stuck with Lidl ($1.29/lb) or going some non-turkey route since we don't spend $400 in a month on groceries (never mind at a single store) to qualify for a "free" one.
Like
lamb. fuck your overpriced birds
, the missus wants to do a leg of lamb but that means we'd have to completely rethink our menu
Right? But I'm a coastie. This is the first time I've had to complain about did prices. Last year, I got a turkey for 39¢ but this year, the cheapest is nearly double that wtf
Akshully, lemme check Save-a-Lot. Maybe it'll be cheap there.

Probably, Villanova is also tiny compared to the area i'm in, so a handful of high-income earners skews the entire town.
Villanova has less than 1000 households, my suburb has over 14,000. Totally different scales.

Eh, with median home price close to $2million, I doubt income is skewed that badly even if there are only 900 homes in the whole town.
My brother's place was just shy of $1mil when he bought it shortly before I got my tiny 2 bedroom in the Philly area for $120k 11 years ago. At least I have no mortgage since it was paid for in cash.
Anyway, if prices are increasing at the same rate in his area as they are in mine, my brother's house is definitely worth about $2mil now since mine is close to $300k these days.

I’m thinking of making a basic thanksgiving meal for me and my aunt whom I live with, I have never cooked a turkey in my life. What advice can you bros give me about what size bird, how long to cook it, etc etc
>advice
Don't overthink it. First time I cooked a turkey, I was still at university and it was a total piece of piss. Just think of it as a giant chicken and that's it. Don't stuff it, though. Unlike chicken, the size of a turkey will make stuffing difficult to cook through completely without drying out the bird. Not impossible, but since it's you're first time, just don't bother with it.
If you're not that confident in your ability, just roast a breast. It's easier since you can cook it to the exact right temperature without waiting for other parts to cook through along with it.
Also, since it's just the two of you, a beast might make more sense, anyway.
Good luck, fren
>99 cents with $150 purchase
Fucking hell.

Same with the limit. Usually only get two or three as is and $35 is almost a guarantee when you go to the store anyways. So I'll just grab one when I'm there and not worry about it since I'll make at least two of three trips before Thanksgiving.

Yea im not too upset, a $5-8 while turkey isn't something to turn down either way.
I'll throw 6-8 in my freezer to be used throughout the rest of the year. Over 125lbs of meat for less than $50.
Same with the limit. Usually only get two or three as is and $35 is almost a guarantee when you go to the store anyways. So I'll just grab one when I'm there and not worry about it since I'll make at least two of three trips before Thanksgiving.
Going to make a bacon wrapped stuffed turkey breast with maple gravey, honey glazed carrots, mashed potatoes, Hispanicy/szechuan garlic green beans, baked cinnamon apple slices, brioche dinner rolls, and blueberry pie.
Very excited I get to host and cook for the extended family this year.
I don't like it either, but I do actually enjoy bacon. I just find that the beacon never gets crispy enough to my preference and the food that gets wrapped always wins up looking anaemic since it takes no colour during cooking. It'd be best for scallops imo, but I've never had it since I generally don't tend to like bacon with seafood
Bacon wrapped scallops are a great way to buffer against overcooking if you are new to doing scallops.
Once you get the experience though I agree there are much better ways to do them.
One bacon wrapped snack I did end up really enjoying is jalapeño poppers. Not in addition to but in lieu of breading. Bacon is usually a really overpowering flavour but it actually let's more of the jalapeño come through than a breading coating does.
Not that I'm having poppers for Thanksgiving of course.
i am cookin everything that claire does in her thanksgiving marathon video i love you claire i learned at the beginning of the video you are married haha when did that happen claire
I’m thinking of making a basic thanksgiving meal for me and my aunt whom I live with, I have never cooked a turkey in my life. What advice can you bros give me about what size bird, how long to cook it, etc etc
I always have a bunch of turkey meat left to eat with leftovers for several days, send home with people, and make other things like pot pies, sandwiches, quesadillas if I want. I only cook for four people but I still get a big turkey because I like to have all that meat to work with. The carcass makes great broth, too.
Brining and then cooking a turkey in a turkey bag is fool-proof. The drippings from the turkey make the best gravy. If you're worried about not cooking it enough, get a meat thermometer. They don't cost much. If you get a whole turkey, get a roasting pan. You can get a cheap, disposable one for a few dollars. It makes cleaning up after very easy.

I think I might buy a turkey this year, maybe even two, but it's just me and my dad so a whole turkey is gonna be a challenge to eat before it goes bad. I still want to do it though because as the signs reminded me, holy fuck is a whole turkey cheap. What I was thinking is I'd thaw it immediately, disassemble it, put the bits in ziplpck bags, and refreeze it, so I can just take out say a leg and a thigh and eat that for a day or two, then a week later take the breast, etc etc. My dad seems to think this is a food safety issue somehow, but it seems fine to me yeah? He does for some reason think it would be safer if i started with a fresh turkey, not frozen, I guess because he's concerned about having to let it sit in the fridge to thaw for a day or two before I can even start disassembling? Frozen seems safer personally, because I was under the impression they flash freeze stuff now, so it should be pretty well protected until I cut open the bag when it's done thawing, and the fresh ones would have to have been sitting in the store for who knows how long at fridge temps.
Anyway, any thoughts on this general idea? I've never actually disassembled a carcass before, though I've seen it done a number of times on youtube. I am a bit lacking in tools, just a chefs knife and a paring knife, but it seems doable to me.

If it's just two people, get a turkey breast unless you REALLY want a whole bird, and if you do get a whole bird get the smallest one.
A 22lbs turkey can feed 8-10 people.
Thanks anon just getting a turkey breast hadn’t occurred to me
They won't have much for leftovers but maybe anon doesn't care about that.
A 3lbs breast feeds 2-4, a 6lbs breast easily 3-6 people.
I always have a bunch of turkey meat left to eat with leftovers for several days, send home with people, and make other things like pot pies, sandwiches, quesadillas if I want. I only cook for four people but I still get a big turkey because I like to have all that meat to work with. The carcass makes great broth, too.

Can you bros tell me why my stepdad's turkey always seems to taste dry? I enjoy it but it's not the same as restaurant taste.
Didn't baste or provide moisture to start with, potentially cooked too long or too high, etc.
Plenty of ways to fuck it up.
>baste
I never do that and my turkey is as moist as a theatre seat after a showing of Magic Mike.
Cooked it either too hot or too long.
I have no idea. It's just me and one other person. Nothing to extravagant I think
my family only trusts me to bring whipped cream and store bought gravy
