The pork roast just before it went into the smoker. It smelled so wonderful when it was done smoking. I won't know until tomorrow if it tastes as good as it smells. And after using the smoker, I got it all cleaned up for winter storage.
The cherry pie. I am so looking forward to having some of this pie. Cherry pie is one of my favorites. I still have the pumpkin pie to bake. I'll do that first ting in the morning. I prefer a freshly-baked pumpkin pie over one baked a day or two early. I don't like a soggy bottom crust.
I also have to roast the chicken. It's rubbed all over with an herb butter and waiting in the fridge to roast tomorrow. And I'll make a gravy with the drippings afterward. The rest of the meal will be cooking preassembled casseroles or reheating menu items that are fully cooked. It looks like I'm almost done with the prep. I hope all of your holiday work is about done now, too.
Wishing you all a lovely and festive Thanksgiving!
