Thanksgiving brings about choices. Traditionally, a turkey is served with the feast. Even the most powerful leader in the world (the President) selects a turkey for the table at the White House. Talk about being on death row. Anyway, I digress.
I've never been much for turkey. It always seems a bit dry to me. In our family, there is always a ham that is available as well. There's nothing better than a boneless ham cooked slowly in Pepsi. The last few years, we've also enjoyed a fried turkey. It seems to keep it's juices a little more and who doesn't love anything if fried?
What's your meat of choice? If you haven't decided yet, may I suggest something (even though I haven't indulged yet)?
The largest item on any menu in the world is probably the roast camel, sometimes served at Bedouin wedding feasts. The camel is stuffed with a sheep's carcass, which is stuffed with chickens, which are stuffed with fish, which are stuffed with eggs.

1) Is anyone in the West brave enough?
2) Where would I obtain a camel to roast?
3) My family is quite big. But just how many can you serve with this meal?
4) Any idea of who the original chef might be? I haven't seen Emeril Lagasse attempt anything so extravagant.
Anything you want to add? Have a Happy Thankgiving. Enjoy your family and friends. But more importantly, recognize where your blessings come from.

serves 80-100.
that's some feast!
We are some turkey eatin folk! No camel for us, thank you! I would like to offer you a turkey tip. We rub ours with olive oil, rosemary, salt, pepper, and some garlic. We then cook it in a roasting bag with lemon and orange slices, as well as some onions. It is VERY moist and also quite delicious! Hope you had a great one!
Hope you had a great thanksgiving
