| Antique roasting pan still roasts! |
***WARNING!!!***
DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER
I'm serious!
The Hubby roasted a whole turkey yesterday, after several days of defrosting the behemoth in the refrigerator. We'd obtained it in late November, and it was sitting in the freezer until now.
Da Boyz went berserk all day, as the smells of cooking turkey filled the house. The Hubby pulled out an old roasting pan, which he believes is from the 1940's.
Since I began my employment with this company in 2011, we've received a frozen turkey for the US Thanksgiving Day every year. The Hubby and I are vegans, so we cook up the turkey to make into cat food. The Hubby will grind the turkey meat, mix in some broth, and make portions, but last night we fed the cats small chunks of meat.
And, needless to say, the cats LURV'd it! Chili Bruce ate his so fast, that we humans had to guard against him stealing from Manny's bowl. Angel made squeaky noises, then stood frozen for a few seconds, as if taking in the beauty of the bounty. Sweetie almost pulled her bowl out of my hand; she knows a good thing when she smells it!
The Hubby didn't spice the turkey, not even salt and pepper, because the cats don't need that stuff. He's aware too that fat needs to be limited. He cooks the bones, gizzards, and skin down to make the broth. We know that it's not purrfect cat food, but it's a kind of treat for them; they'll only get one meal every few days until it's gone.
