I learned long ago from my friend and chef,
Augie Mrozowski, who now owns and operates
a very successful restaurant in downtown Spring-
field, Ill., Augie’s Front Burner, where Barack
Obama surely dined while in the capital city, how
to cook a turkey like the pros — moist, tender,
delicious and easy.
We cook the bird upside down at 400 Fahren-
heit and only turn it over at the end for about 10
minutes to brown the top. (No stuffing.) Before the
turkey goes in, the pan is lined with potato peels,
onion skins and celery tops and ends, and the bird
is dusted liberally with salt and both white and
fresh-ground black pepper. The turkey juice sim-
mers with the veggies, then strained and poured
off, it makes delicious gravy.
But don’t overcook the bird. Use a meat ther-
mometer if you must, check it often and you’ll
enjoy some very moist, delicious turkey. A big
25-pound turkey should only have to cook two
and a half hours.
Granny’s Turkey Dressing
And Granny’s Turkey Dressing can really
make the meal special. This “stuffing” recipe
originated with my stepfather’s mother. I have to
wonder why we don’t have it more than once a
year — it’s really simple.
Here’s how I do it now. In a disposable, foil
roaster pan, mix two bags of seasoned, cubed
stuffing mix with one bag of crunchy corn
bread stuffing mix. Stir in one large chopped
onion and a large head of celery chopped. (Do
not saute the onions.) Brown one pound each
hamburger and breakfast sausage and mix in
with the other ingredients. Sprinkle with poul-
try seasoning (pre-mixed spice). While you’re
doing all this, you should have been boiling
the turkey giblets. Pour the giblet water plus
some au jus from the turkey over the dress-
ing to moisten — not too wet, just to thicken
and moisten the breading. Add some of the
giblets, finely chopped. (Be sure to save some
giblets for your gravy.)
This dressing can go in the oven when the
turkey comes out, as it only takes a short time to
cook — mostly to brown the top. I usually brown
it, stir it, and brown again a few times. And since
the turkey is out and being carved, quickly de-bone
and chop up the crispy wing meat and browned
skin and stir into the dressing already cooking in
the oven.
Smooth gravy every time
Next step, remove the turkey to cool and
slice, and put the big roasting pan on the stove

Thanksgiving recipes
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2
top at a medium temperature, add a cup of
water or two and stir, stir, stir. Remove the
vegetable scraps that cooked with the turkey
and you’ve got a rich au jus to make gravy.
To finish — no lumps, guaranteed — mix
three to four tablespoons of soft butter
(not melted) with the same amount of
flour. Mix until smooth, and spoon into the
simmering au jus. Stir until thickened (add
more flour-butter mix — it’s called roux)
if needed.
Florida cranberry relish
The cranberry relish is my recipe. It’s all done
in the blender or food processor. (Friends know I
do things the easy way whenever possible.) Dump
in one bag of cranberries, add sections from one
peeled Florida orange, a quart of fresh strawber-
ries (if frozen, be sure to get the whole ones with
no added sugar or water). Then chop, chop, chop.
Pour in about 10 packets of Equal or Splenda, to
taste. Of course, you can use sugar, but I never do
and no one knows.
Another thing I never do is measure. Blend,
chop, whir it all up and then mix in chunky
chopped pecans and crispy, tiny bits of chopped
celery. Finish with some orange zest. More straw-
berries? More better.
This makes a lot of relish but it freezes well
and you can use it up at Christmas. (If you’re
WWW.MANATEESHOPPERS GUIDE.COM
invited to dinner,
quickly offer to bring the cranberry relish.)
More tips, dessert
Our family dinner focuses on the favorites
now after years of too much food. We include
mashed potatoes, asparagus and rolls, but who
needs anything more?
Well, you need desserts, of course. I
used to experiment with old, familiar des-
sert recipes by adding liqueurs to pies and
cakes. You can create a delicious chocolate
pecan pie — just add chunks to the mix,
which then melt and settle deliciously to the
bottom when it’s baked. Or add chocolate
liqueur or bourbon to a regular pecan pie
CONTINUING A 54-YEAR TRADITION
recipe for a warm, yummy result. Kahlua
works well in pumpkin or banana bread as
a substitute for corn syrup. My family, how-
ever, always liked those breads before
dinner, while waiting for the turkey.
I gave up cooking pumpkin pie when I
discovered the desserts at Harry’s Conti-
nental Kitchens — the deli, where you can
buy the whole pumpkin pie or a slice, to go.
Harry’s secret ingredient is Drambuie. (Sorry,
Harry, but even with the ingredients, no one can
make it like you do.) And if you like your pie the
old-fashioned way, try mixing some fun (liqueurs)
into the whipped topping — made from scratch,
of course.
I even have a few tips for whipping cream.
Buy heavy cream or the little carton labeled whip-
ping cream. Chill the bowl and the utensils, whip
the cream before adding vanilla bean or extract,
and use powdered sugar to taste.
I hope your holiday is a wonderful one. I
won’t be cooking because I’m looking forward
to Thanksgiving this year in St. Louis with my
two granddaughters, Jesse and Joselin, and my
daughter Kendra.
What more could a person wish for?
I wish you a great holiday with family and
friends, and please, visit the beach for me.
And remember not to overcook your bird.
Bon appetit...
