    Work off some pounds and then put more on. I'm sure that's enough for four people. :coffee:

    Oh what beautiful food is coming out of your house thewoodlands ! I love all the pics including the wood (haha), but this turkey dinner in particular has me wishing I was sitting at that table this very minute. The gravy alone would make me a happy man and it doesn't look like you will run out which is always a plus:yes:, but what is that watermelon colored sauce? Is that a different take on cranberry sauce?
    By the way, you carve a turkey just like me; fillet meat off bones and then slice it up putting white meat on one side then moving to my favorite, the dark meat:beerbbq:.

    Enjoyed watching you cut those logs up T.Jeff Veal! You're a strong looking man and no nonsense with bucking up. I wouldn't want to have to fight you for that big oak you had there. Never had pecan wood where we are, are we missing anything special up here?

    Oooh Thanks thewoodlands ! we grow black berries and blueberries on our small property, though not so much luck with the blues. They stay kinda pea sized (probably on wrong side of house) and the birds usually find them before we do. But we always make things with berries especially strawberries. I will give this a try since its a pretty straight forward recipe and looks crowd pleasing.

    Ha, after rolling those rounds around, there isn't much left to me...lol...
    Pecan is in the hickory family, doesn't make as good wood as hickory, but alot of folks like to cook and smoke with it. Do y'all have the Chili's restaurant chain up there? They smoke their ribs with pecan wood.

    It's my favorite and I think you'll like it. I'll be having some next week with some homemade ice cream with chocolate chip cookies.
