- This year, we've foregone the "reinvented" or "new spins" on Thanksgiving recipes. We've opted instead to take a look at the classics we've grown up eating and make them as simply as possible with the freshest ingredients. This special presentation is the culmination of that effort. There are 13 recipes in this video and links to each of the full written versions that include substitutions, tips and tricks on our website. They're here to serve as a starting point for your own classic Thanksgiving day meal.

Watching people cook is relaxing therapy. Especially if they are talented cooks like this Chef
It certainly is. Very relaxing.
I love how he does one ingredient at a time & not "rush" throughout the process. Here in the BLACKBELT is how this Chef is exemplifying his decades of " tasty " cuisine simpler than ever , even those who say they can't make it happen (cooking), often works out quite well.😂❤
I agree. How a person puts it together and explains usually determines if I’m going to try the recipe. If the prep work and explanation is disjointed, cut with tangents, or not explained well….I don’t have the time or patience for that.
Yesss it is ‼️🤗🤗❤️
Just like going to a 3d art museum.
When I was young and made my first turkey I left the bag inside I didn’t know. But it was good.
Wouldn't you need a deeper turkey pan, with all that butter and juices? Oh my gosh, looks delicious! Alot of great tips, such as thick onions under turkey, lemons inside. Full preparation of turkey is great 👍 👍👍
Thats what i was thinking! I would have sloshed boiling turkey fat right on to my feet sure shootin'! 😂 It did look delicious, but my head would roll if i changed the family recipes! I think i'll try it with a whole chicken first and see how everyone likes it. Hope you have an awesome Fall! 🧡🙏🕊
We watched this video and everything looked so good! My wife completely changed the food that we have on Thanksgiving. The turkey was Awesome! This was the best and juiciest turkey I have ever had, No really, as I was curving the turkey turkey juice was all over my knife. The stuffing was so easy to make and absolutely delicious. No more stovetop stuffing in this house.
Thank you so much for your video, these recipes will be handed down thru generations.
Again Thank you for sharing your recipes with my family.
I can not believe I spent almost two hours just to watch this gentleman cooking - And I enjoyed and learned so much from this channel. Thank you.
Ok thank you
I know right? Me too. Loved every minute of it😊
This is one of the most enjoyable viewing experiences I’ve had watching someone cook. Kudos to this fine chef for his skills in the kitchen. I will be re-watching this again. Subscribed after seeing this 😊
Wow, thank you!!
You are a talented chef and a terrific teacher. Thank you.
Watching people cook is relaxing therapy.
We make cornbread dressing its a mixture of half cornbread and half toasted french bread.
We use chicken stock. Everything else is the same. I do use more broth so dressing is more moist. Make sure your cornbread doesn’t have sugar. Don’t use Jiffy cornbread mix.
Use a cornmeal mix.
This video is fantastic. Clean, simple and fresh. I definitely learned some things I'll be using this Thanksgiving. Thanks so much.
I literally cried with joy and heard angels sing when I learned of your sweet potato casserole. I’ll be making this for Thanksgiving this year! THANK you!!! Best video ever! You are a Blessing to the world!!
I agree that watching cooks is relaxing therapy and a talented cook for sure no nonsense
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL. TRULY CLASSIC. SO SIMPLE. AND A GOOD CHEF. I WILL PLAY THIS VIDEO AGAIN AND AGAIN . FANTASTIC
I love this and cannot wait to replay it three more times as I prepare Thanksgiving (s)!
My absolute favorite food for Thanksgiving is the stuffing.
I could just eat that and be happy without anything else.
Your stuffing recipe is perfect, easy, looks so 👍 good.
I’m team stuffing also. I’ve been known to make a stuffing sandwich with plain white buttered bread, toasted and stuffing in the center 🙈occasionally I’ll spread cranberry sauce on it! Top Chef stuff here!!! Lol 😅
My brother, too! We would double the stuffing and warm up some gravy from the glass jars. That and some cranberry, and he'd forgo all but a turkey leg.
@@nancydelu4061hahahaha 😂that’s great! Yeah, stuffing is the best part of thanksgiving.
He makes it very simple, no fancy turkey rack, not even an Allclad roasting pan or turkey lifters! Man, thos dripping look awesome! You can’t make a bad gravy with that!
You make each step look so easy and fun. Thank you.
You can put that carnation in a pot and cover the can with water for 3hrs also and it will turn into Carmel. But i think your way is faster.Thank,s Teresa.
Great to see the basics from the beginning-just what a newbie needs. :)
I don’t trim the skin, I let it melt to make extra gravy. Salt & pepper. Stuff with fresh herbs - parsley sage rosemary thyme. And 1/4 onion. + a stick of butter. That way the dripping are flavored an all I need to do is bring all this dripping and stock to a boil and stir in a slurry of potato starch and cold stock. Super easy. 🍗
I hope they do one Gor Christmas and holiday baking. On the latter I would love to have them make the macadamia nut tropical fruit cake the Times published ad bout 1980. My copy of the recipe got "borrowed" and then "lost". The LA Times always had the best recipes!❤
I can spell. I just have a lot of trouble typing on a Kindle. Also spell check hates me!
Haven't tried these recipes but was so fascinated that I watched to the end and hope to watch over and over again
This is such a great compromise on technique! It makes it so much easier than the full blown cheffy versions, but it's still elevated. And I've never had dressing with egg in it, but it makes complete sense. I'm going to do a dry run of this with a whole chicken and see how the family likes it so they don't Marie Antoinette me on Thanksgiving 😁. Happy Fall 2023, everyone! 🧡🙏🕊🍂👻🎃🕷🍁🕸️🦃🥧
I used Herb de Provence last year on my turkey with a sour cream run, I put the spice in the sour cream and rubbed my turkey down. It was so juicy the meat fell apart and melted in your mouth. My family loved it and requested it this yr
😂😂😂😂😂 great plan. I thought the same thing to. Do a dry run
@@rebeccahall4961 that's brilliant! I've always wanted to marinate a turkey in buttermilk and buffalo sauce like i do for chicken, but that's just asking for a contamination catastrophe with a big ole slippery turkey. With sour cream (or yoghurt), it'll adhere and tenderize like a curry! 👏💚🙏🕊
@@vtwlim67 😄🫶
if you make a chicken, you could put the stuffing inside... and with a turkey, try apples and mugwort (sagebrush) - it's traditional in Germany for filling ducks and goose.
You are wonderful. You make it seem sooo easy, but it takes a lot of talent to get that across. I enjoyed every minute and thank you for your presentation.
Thank you for sharing step by step all these great recipes, you were very easy to understand and easy on the eys😂 I will be making some of these dishes for my sides for christmas day, I know they will turn out perfect!
I made the turkey and the cornbread dressing it was delicious. Everyone commented on how tender the turkey was. Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed the video so much. Blessings!!
OMG that apple pie!!! Looks perfect.
The pumpkin pie is a keeper! The pie dough came together quickly and easily and the filling was delicious.
i love his pots
I also cook the gizzards, livers, neck with onions, celery and any spices you like to make your own stock for the gravy. I also use the juice to put in the stuffing. I don't like big stuffing. I use more smaller pieces of bread.
You can also add dried cranberries -- soak them in warm water so they plump up -- about a cups worth --- adds a festive element -- oh! and make the stuffing the night before and let all of the elements merge overnight in the fridge! Happy Thanksgiving!
I bone my turkey, marinate the entire bird for 48 hours. Then make the dressing, smash it into the open caucus, sew it up. Looks like a duck, but when it’s cooked, slicing is a breeze, each piece is wrapped around the dressing. Lovely presentation and the taste is amazing. Worth the work, usually I have a few on lookers sipping wine as I prep.
Wouldn't you need a deeper turkey pan, with all that butter and juices? Oh my gosh, looks delicious! Alot of great tips, such as thick onions under turkey, lemons inside. Full preparation of turkey is great
Everything you made looks so amazing. I am making the pumpkin pie!! ❤
Stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy and mixed veggies ❤
Amazing. I pretty much cook the same traditional foods every year but this year, I’m going to change a couple dishes using your recipes. Thank you so much. I watched your whole video!
That sweet potato casserole! Everything looks delish!
This is the perfect Thanksgiving meal! TY❤
Hmm...I like the sweet potato/apple dish. Mine is Kahlua-candied sweet potatoes.
Cranberry Sauce. All your receipes look so delicious!
Turkey, stuffings, gravy, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes.
Very informative video.

Thanks a bunch for this video! I’m hosting thanksgiving for the first time and this was a huge help!
Thank you for sharing, will be making several of these recipes this year, they look delicious🥰
Paula is the best!! She's so down to earth. I met her in person on a flight to Savannah, from Southern California. 😂 On the last leg of my flight from California to Savannah, I kept hearing a very distinct and familiar voice. I was certain i knew who it was, because her laugh was undeniable!!😂 I'm an original southen gal myself, born and raised. South knows south!! As I contemplated my assumption, as to who this pleasant southern voice belonged too, I still wasn't certain. As it turned out, when our plane landed, I was eager to see the face to the voice. Undeniable, I was in star struck mode!! The minute we all stood up, to retreive our carry ons above our heads, we both looked at each other at the exact same time. Yes!! She knew!! before my nerves, initiated my question, " are you Paula Dean"? She replied, with the most friendly and gracious " yes mame I am". We walked and talked like old friends, about what a fan I was and about her jewelry line, her youtube presence, and her Resteraunt in Savannah. I wanted to capture the incredible moment with a picture, and Paula in her graciousness, suggested taking a selfie. We took a selfie, and parted ways. My friend and I was in Savannah only for a three day visit, so we didn't get a chance to visit Paula's restaurant. However, we plan to return in the future. Paula is indeed, the "real deal" and still a big deal!! All the best Paula Dean!! Huge fan. Regina Ricard, Bay Point, CA 🌺🌺🌺🌺
Great Chef! Your recipes are exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!
I'm enjoying this site
I use a deep roasting pan with a rack lined with parchment paper. Easy clean up. Cook the neck, heart, gizzard and liver, bay leaf
Use the broth for the gravy.
Or if you don’t have an expensive roasting pan buy a disposable Turkey pan at your dollar store. Just make sure you put a baking sheet under it for support. Lining it with foil to protect against leaks or spills isn’t a bad idea either.
Easy, classic recipes & preparations, clearly explained & demonstrated. Love it!
Great turkey recipe! Followed it exactly and it was perfect.
Everything looks amazing. I never have liked stuffing ( growing up where everyone made “ chicken & dressing”), but I have to say your stuffing looks great. Thank you for sharing some classics, that I can try to do a little different this year, than my usual. ( sometimes it gets tiring doing the exact same things every year. ). Have a Happy Holiday season. Thank you again for sharing .
I was impressed by the beautiful browning of your turkey.
Thank You...🧈 I like your cooking style
Amazing! That you so much for such detailed instructions! Love it! Gonna try tomorrow
Really enjoyed your recipes. I’m going to incorporate some of your ingredients and ways into my recipes. Was easy to follow. Saved it.
Looks so good. 🫶
this year i am doing your stuffing with the french bread, your a comfortable cooker, so easy going thank you sir
Fantastic How To! Thank You!
This is one of the best things I’ve ever seen on yt!! Dream come true video ESPECIALLY the yeast rolls!!!! Thank you!
The whole hour +, EXCELLENT 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🍽
I truly enjoyed watching this chef cook. I watch the entire show. He is a great teacher voice so pleasant and great tone. I will just say he is very smooth. Again i really enjoyed his presentation. I want to try all that he cooked especially the sweet potato and apple and the dressing/stuffing. Thank you chef you are awesome and amazing.
Man i cant wait to make a pecan pie😂❤ You truly inspire me Thank you
😊🎉
Awesome job!!!
My stuffing is cornbread, sage, red apple, cooked wild rice, walnuts or pecans, broth, celery, onions, garlic, & chives. Put into bird & extra pan for munching on with all the vegie left overs. That's my favorite part of Thanksgiving, turkey only good for skin & stuffing. Tho my husband likes it.
Thank you that is so perfect.
Thank you!
I plan to share this with my children. Thanksgiving's best basic recipes... taught very well! Thank you so much!
Thank you for this masterclass👌👌
I like the way you prep your turkey!

Great 👍 informational video. Very detailed and thorough. I love cooking and the holidays. I have cooked turkeys before, but your video is the best video for overall, start to finish preparing. Really appreciate all your time in this video and effort. I am here in So Cal, born here, but will be moving out of state next week to beautiful Tennessee. Can't wait, open space. Average and house being built, so will be able to cook your recipes next year for Thanksgiving 2024. I am currently watching 9-22-23. Blessings 🙏

I commend you on all your items, both the prep, to the execution.
Great demos, advice and, when's dinner?

Everything looks scrumptious. Not too difficult to make which definitely gives me the incentive to try them all. Very different from how I make Turkey but I’m anxious to give it a go. I’m so happy to have found this channel. Please keep the recipes coming. Very much appreciated.❤❤
Maravilhoso, adorei!!
Adorei o video, uma refeição completa. Parabéns
