Turkey Shortage?
JTHunter:
Thankfully, I am not a big fan of turkey and my elderly mother won't touch it. She does like pork loin, esp. the way I cook it and she loves dressing. I do the cooking now and she does the eating. ;)
The rest of the family live at least 200 miles away so the chances of us getting together is slim.

Depending on the virus status in the area, we will either have 25-30 people for Thanksgiving or five. We will see.

With all the cows running around here I'm thinking standing rib roast sounds good.
RoadKingLarry:
If I can acquire one I may smoke a turkey this year. Haven't done that in several years now.
So far I haven't heard of any unusual shortages on meat and other groceries locally.

For several years I bought heritage free range turkey from a young menonite guy near me. They were awesome but he must have stopped because I didn’t get my usual spring preorder commitment email from him last year or this.
I have done ok with organic turkey from Aldi without the injected brine and usual contaminants.
We have invited my wife’s parents and siblings but it might be just the 2 of us or as many as 16. Doesn’t matter to me. I love left over turkey.
AFTER thanksgiving I often pick up a whole breast or young turkey for cheap. I like to keep a couple in the freezer and smoke them slow in the pit barrel.
