Tamales can go in the trash too.

I love it so much that I try to make it several times throughout the year. I don't roast a turkey, but I do buy the turkey meat, gravy, cranberries, stuffing, sweet potatoes, green bean surprise casserole, copper pennies, and all the home- made relishes, not to mention all the pies.
I really got a kick from that old Pizza Hut commercial 12 days of Christmas with "Flaming turkey wings" being one of the creative leftovers.

In 1988 I had Thanksgiving dinner at the Denver Grill in downtown Tulsa. It was a great meal. Too bad they’re gone.

Isn't it really cool that we have the opportunity to eat what we want. If you don't like the traditional feast, stop by Sonic and pick up a couple of corn dogs. I'm sure everyone will understand and applaud your individualism.
What I do like:
1) Pumpkin Pie
2) My wife's Mac and Cheese Casserole
Everything else is okay. Last year we did T Bones, awesome decision. Also instead of Pumpkin Pie (which I like) we did A Pumpkin spice cake.
Previous years w/o kids or family we have done Pizza and even once Jersey Mike's! I was floored how many ordered subs that day!

I think you are the only one so far to mention ham. Congratulations.
There will be six of us at this year's Thanksgiving dinner, which will include both turkey and ham. I'm always good with either, and this year I can have both!!!!
Is Sonic open on Thanksgiving?
Tamales are based AF.
Pork confit wrapped in a lard dough. The tamale dates back centuries and was even used as a military ration as it's fat content resist spoilage. prior to the hot dog, the handle held the place as aAmerica's on the go meal for theaters and baseball games and such. A proper tamales is a true test of cooking skill and a 2 day process, rendering fat, dehydrating and milling chilies etc
I make them every Christmas so the kids have something to unwrap.
I'm a fan for one day, then I'm out. I can usually suffer through the leftovers until after the weekend. Come the Monday after, yeah, I'm gonna need some beef. A steak, a cheeseburger, some meat loaf, ANYTHING as long as it's made of beef.
If we didn't do Thanksgiving with Mrs. GED's fam, I'd just as soon do BBQ, pizza, Chinese, Mexican whatever. But her peeps enjoy the traditional food.
Luckily, my brothers and their families disowned me a long time ago, and both my parents are deceased, so I haven't had holidays (or even a conversation) with them in 18+ years.

How could anyone complain about the deserts?
