Thanksgiving meal Time of Day

[MTGomer]

This thread is to find the member who’s thanksgiving meal was scheduled for the earliest in the day.
This idea came to mind after hearing a relative want to have it at 11AM

Post your planned meal time. The earliest wins some sympathy.

Ours was 4 p.m. I have always tried to get a morning hunt in on Thanksgiving Day. I missed one of the largest whitetails I have ever had a chance at one Thanksgiving morning.

1 PM

 

[CPAjeff]

Noon.

 

[MTLabrador]

I was stuck working today, so it was 6. 11 is just insanity.

 

[Gellar]

We were supposed to meet around 10 and eat at 1. We made it by 11:30.

 

[Dave N]

On our way to my Kansas deer hunt. Thanksgiving turkey dinner at Bob Evans restaurant at 7:00 PM !!

 

[Nameless Range]

1:00 which I think is ok.

Late enough for a quick walk in the morning for bird or beast but early enough that my “Let’s get this over with” attitude doesn’t ruin the whole day and I’m ready for a gravy sandwich before bed.

 

[Mallardsx2]

2:00 at my in laws.

And that’s timeframe pisses me off yearly.

Noon to 1 pm.

 

[MTTW]

2:00 this year. There wasn't a person in the house who expected to see me home at that time, but I was...this time.

We've eaten at 1 o'clock for as long as I can remember.

Growing up, it was always 11-1 at the farmhouse. Everyone sat in the morning until 9 or so with enough time in there to get in a few deer drives before having to arrive back at 11. Dinner was ready usually just before noon and everyone wanted to get out of there at 1 to head back to sit for the evening. After sitting deer had to taken care of (hung and skinned in the shed) and Supper was at 6. There was no shortage of food that day, double turkey meals to fill that belly good!

1:00 was the plan but we tried spatchcock turkey which cooked an hour quicker. We sat down at noon.

 

[gouch]

We ate a 3:00 and everyone left before 8:00. Not a bad Thanksgiving.

4 is show time, everyone trickles in around then. Lot of snacks & eats, Little ones unleashed, party time! We have a Big crowd. Little ones served first, then we all feast! Great food, pies, party games, and kids unleashed. Always good fun! I'm thankful to be born American with Irish & Russian influences.
Enjoy the incredible silence when they all go home.
