Who's cooking Thanksgiving Dinner in A/S?

Anyone out there who will be cooking their A/S for Thanksgiving? And if you you are, where will you be and what will your holiday menu look like?
Happy Turkey day to all., Susan

We will be traveling to Las Vegas with the AS and staying at the Oasis RV Park. Since it is just the wife and I, we are cooking a 1/2 13# turkey in the oven along with mashed taters, sweet taters, peas and onions, gravy, and fresh cranberry sauce...haven't decided on dessert yet...oh and don't forget the vino!

Turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, apple pie. All but the turkey will be prepared in the Airstream, the turkey is too big to fit in the oven, no matter how much I cram it...

Pumpkin pie and homemade whipped cream is a must on Thanksgiving.

Not this year but I can verify that a 1977 Magic Chef oven will cook up to a 22lb turkey.

Well, with 23 of us around the table, we won't be cooking or eating in the AS. But, we are not moving her to her winter hme until after Turkey day so all the kids and their families can see what we've been talking about for the past three months! Kind of like, meet the newest member of the family day..

We're at home this Thanksgiving, but having the Airstream by the house gives us a the opportunity to have his and hers kitchens!

This just out of the Sovereign's oven.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Black Swan or 1 in a million

My wife bought a small turkey to cook in our oven at home. The Airstream is winterized and put away- -like in storage and parked 25 miles away.
So this morning as she went to start the oven in our GE gas range, guess what? The xxxx oven wouldn’t heat up. -Again !!!
We had oven failure when we first got the stove in 1999 and also failed a year later. What is the problem with these simple components????

Now, we have a fully stuffed turkey ready to go now place to cook it- -Or do we?
The Airstream has a great oven and we could use that, but I didn’t think of that alternative until this thread appeared on Airforums. Now it’s too late in the day to use the A/S oven. I’ll get the part (Glow Bar or Oven Igniter) tomorrow and hopefully it is in stock locally. So maybe we’ll have our turkey tomorrow while other are have their leftovers.

one in a million + - - a black swan instead of a common turkey

While some of our 4CU friends rallied together in Quartzsite, AZ for Thanksgiving again this year, we needed to stay closer to home this time...so we are having a quiet R&R Thanksgiving weekend at Picacho Peak...we had roasted a turkey earlier in the week, so we brought half-turkey breast, made dressing, mashed potatoes and gravy, and a pumpkin pie in the Bambi... It was a very nice dinner...made fresh-whipped cream for the pie and now we are full and ready for a cozy night in the mid-30-degree (forecast) weather...

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Does it need to be IN the Airstream?
The oven is out for some interior cabinet rebuilding this winter but the need for another stove popped up.
I can attest that it is possible to cook a squash soufflé and extra dressing with the oven set up on an oil drum and the barbecue propane tank providing gas.
I have a bad feeling there will be a picture of “Ma trailer trash step-daddy a putin’ in the vittles.” posted on one of the kids Facebook account tonight.

Happy Thanksgiving to all,
Tom
