Asian American Foodways at Thanksgiving - The Washington Informer
 
Spending Thanksgivimg at my brother's place. Went to a local deli. First time trying dry coppa. Was expecting it to be flavorful or at least salty but it didn't taste like anything and it didn't melt in my mouth either. The bread was dry too. Should've tried Jimmy Johns.

Looks good from the picture at least.

Jimmy John's capicola(or Italian meat in general) is pretty good though.

Damn that peanut butter Boston cream looks good as hell
 
It sucks only having one oven in the house when the turkey has to be cooked along with a few other dishes.

Some of those look interesting and I'm not even a doughnut dude.
 
I honestly don't see how someone could mess up that badly if they were really "trying."

It's not complicated at all - just time and temperature - not so hot that you burn the outside before the inside is cooked all the way through and not so long that it dries out.

I have no clue how anyone can cook something like that without a thermometer - you're either playing roulette or leaving it longer "just to make sure" - so that' how you end up with dry turkey.
