Thanksgiving Recipe Roundup – DadCooksDinner

Thanksgiving Recipe Roundup 2022. Looking for DadCooksDinner recipes for your Thanksgiving turkey, gravy or sides? Here are my Thanksgiving favorites.

Instant Pot turkey thighs

My pressure cooker supports me when I have my (large, extended) family for Thanksgiving. For the big bird I use my grill. Grilled turkey tastes better and frees up the oven for other dishes, like the stuffing. I use my pressure cooker for prep work, make turkey broth, gravy, and cranberry sauce ahead of time; I use it as a side dish on the day itself, usually with sweet potatoes or squash.

If we have a smaller Thanksgiving, just the two of us, I’ll switch to the pressure cook turkey. I love dark turkey, so I pressure-cook some thighs or drumsticks and choose our favorite side dishes.

So, here it is, my roundup of Thanksgiving recipes. Good luck on T-Day!
