As most of you know, I have a weekday job. At that job last Tuesday, we had our annual "Thanksgiving Lunch". The usual fair: Turkey, Ham, Stuffing, Sweet Tator Sooflay Souffle, etc etc. Then on Thursday I was at my parent's house in Brunswick, GA. Again, Turkey, Ham, sweet tators, etc. Later that night, after viewing Casino Royale (Another blog reviewing it, coming soon), I headed over to my God-mother's mother's house (BoBo as she is referred to by all her grand children, god children, etc). Guess what we had for dinner at Bobo's? haha, you guessed it, Turkey, Ham, etc, etc............
My mom always wonders why I don't ever take home leftover turkey and ham when she offers to put some in my cooler.
Why the Turkey? Why the ham? Surely when the pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, there were cows roaming around. I' m sure the Natives had been feeding some of those cows corn and such to make them yummy. And I damn sure know they all knew how to build a fire and make a make-shift grill! Why couldn't Turkey day be known as Steak Day!?!?! Hell, they were near the water, they could have had Sushi! But No! Had to be a bird loaded with shit that makes you sleepy and causes Gout.
The cool thing is that at work, our CFO and I thought that next year we would propose replacing the "Thanksgiving Lunch" with the "UGA vs GA Tech Steak Out". Yep get everyone to put in about 7 bucks, go and get some nice cuts of beef, preferably Filets, but Strips will do nicely, thank you. And grill them in the back parking lot, like we do during baseball season. For those that don't want a steak, we offer Bubba Burgers and Nathan's hotdogs. I think it will be a hit
