Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday: it's all about food and friends. I love cooking for T-Day, and this year was just a slight variation. Usually I do a disassembled turkey breast roasted per Julia Child's instructions. This year I did one of those and I smoked a breast on the grill with cherry wood. John's brother Jay and his wife Janece came, as did his sister Jane and her husband Roger and kids Jacob and Rachel. Our friends David and Mary Taylor and Rick Hahn rounded out our eleven folks.
We were swimming in food - and I had one surprise: almost all the turkey vanished. The smoked stuff was a real hit!
