Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving; you hungry fool. The skin on my bird is there for you. The basted on butter and glisten for you. That succulent flavor that sucks for you. The Whole enchilada of soaks for you. A roasted out pan of crust to view. The happy black feeling that's burnt for you. That slowly cooked bird I braised for you. What lovely smoked flavor - the taste for you. The charcoal based hunger - of thanks for you. That Happy Thanksgiving I'll give to you. The happiest day for joining two.
