Ready to get a different main course on the Thanksgiving table? These turkey dinner alternatives include pork roasts, slow braises, and whole sides of fish.
Serve your mashed potatoes with brisket bourguignon, your green beans with pumpkin-cheddar strata—or skip the “traditional” holiday trimmings altogether. Honestly, anything can make for an alternative Thanksgiving dinner—one of our colleagues swears by nachos on the fourth Thursday of every November. It’s our house, our rules . But, if we could interject one piece of advice: we do think a holiday meal should be festive, fun, and at least a little decadent.
Maybe you’ve planned a roundup of mostly traditional Thanksgiving foods? It’s gonna be a classic cheese ball and some cranberry chutney for the appetizer course. You’ve decided you do want marshmallows on the sweet potato casserole this year . The brussels sprouts will be roasted simply with olive oil…and balsamic vinegar. Dessert is BA’s Best Pumpkin Pie, of course, but a big bloomin’ bird just isn’t ca-caw-caw-calling your name this year.
