    More on the fried turkey:

    Peanut oil is supposedly the best oil for the frying.

    The frying contraption is, shall we say, pyrotechnically inclined. The most common mistake is putting too much oil in the pot, when the turkey is dunked in, the oil overflows, runs down to the burner, and ignites the whole batch in spectactular fashion.

    Yeah, it's a lot of work, isn't particularly healthy, and could burn your house down, but it does taste great.

    As a side dish, for Thanksgiving we always make a sweet potato dish that will either block an artery or send you into a diabetic coma. Senator Russell's Sweet Potato Casserole:
    Mix together in a large bowl:
    3 cups mashed sweet potatoes
    1 cup granulated sugar
    1 tablespoon vanilla
    2 Eggs
    1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
    1/4 cup evaporated milk

    Spray 2 quart casserole dish with Pam.

    Spread mixture into casserole dish.

    Topping:
    1 cup light brown sugar, packed
    1 cup chopped nuts
    1/2 cup flour

    1/3 cup butter softened

    Mix the above ingredients together. Sprinkle topping over top of sweet potato mixture.

    Bake @ 325º FOR 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
    Enjoy!

    Hang about, I thought the frying thing was a joke, do you mean Americans REALLY fry WHOLE Turkeys?

    Wow. I mean, wow. Who looks at a thing the size of a turkey and thinks, I know, I'll fry that sucker? (well, Americans, obviously)

    Any other dishes we should know about? Potted Whale?

    The Yanks espeicially in the south fry everything, I know this, my step-mom told me.....
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    The Yanks in the south???

    This shouldn't surprise you Brits that much. The American South has a lot of Scottish immigrant descendents. Deep-fried Mars bars, anyone?

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
