How Big is Your Turkey?

18 lbs. It's only for 5 people.
In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence.

Is that pernil? or is it the leg?
Isn't Pernil the shoulder?

Pernil as I know it is the back leg, which is bigger than the shoulder (front). Maybe in PR they call the shoulder pernil... Originally Posted by Lasareath

Capocolla is made from the top of the pigs neck. Check the meaning in Italian. Originally Posted by Lasareath

I'm just hoping mine didn't come out of a can.

Bless your heart Troy. Here's to hoping that you don't have T-day via a can. From what my sis told me, it's not all that bad, considering. Then again, that was last year in the green zone and I have no idea where you will be.

De nada....this is what I get paid all that money for.
You guys enjoy!!!
Supposed to be real turkeys today....we had some flown in but not sure how many. Not that big of a deal either way as I don't intend to stand in line all day to find out.

Troy, if you DO get a canned Turkey, bring one home for me. I'll serve it up for Christmas and Logan (my 8 year old) can learn a little about the 'real' world.
Matter of fact, bring me a couple MRE's, they boy is a twig, need to put some meat on his bones.
I miss you brotha, more than you know, and I'm thankful the friendship.

****, I'll send you some......
MRE's have come a LOOOONG way. Some of them are edible if not actually pretty good. The heaters they have now (put the meal in a package...add water...instant heat) are a big help. When in doubt...always go with the vegetarian ones. They are usually 'newer' and the pasta ain't bad. About the same as, say, chef boyardee.

We were still consuming C-Rations when I was in the Army Troy. 78-84. MRE's were being introduced just before my discharge. I ate some spaghetti (dry) then drank half a cantene of water. That stuff expanded in my stomach and made me severly ill. My bad. It didn't taste half bad dehydrated tho. GI Crunch n Munch:p Originally Posted by TroyD

My grandfather used to by suplus C-rations and take them for his lunch at work. I actually thought they weren't bad at all. Better than MRE's for sure.
