We cook a turkey.
We cook a ham.
Why the hell do we not smother a few pork steaks down for the gravy?

Normalize prime rib for Thanksgiving. Keep everything else the same.

At least once a month on a Sunday afternoon, something is smothered with gravy at my house

Braised bone-in pork loin roast with crawfish-cornbread dressing and gravy.

Make yourself happy.

I’m so done with turkey
I never want it again
I’m happy with a really good ham, but ham and a pork steak sounds like a hell of a good Thanksgiving meal

I could take Turkey or leave it for the actual Thanksgiving meal. However, the subsequent sandwiches, stocks, and gumbos means I'll always have one, if not two.

Anything to replace the turkey.
We do the ham and rotate something else in every year. Then, just because there is always a complainer, we throw one of those giant mutant turkey breasts in a roaster as an after thought.

I prefer fried turkey for Thanksgiving and when I had my big T-Day bash I'd find myself frying no less than three of them for the 25 or so folks that showed up.
What leftover turkey that didn't go for sandwiches found use in making filling for turkey pot pies or to be added to soup or gumbo. The carcasses of the birds all go in a big pot for slow cooking overnight for stock.
One year I had picked clean 3 turkeys and had all the bones set aside in the big pot for stock after all the guests left. Some of the folks invited helped clean up the house a bit before they left while I got things put away outside and when I finally got to the point of making the stock, the carcasses were gone.
One of my lady guests is a bit OCD who I don't think has cooked 3 meals in her entire lifetime, saw all those bones and tossed them in the trash. It wasn't like they were in their own bag and easily retreived, they were in a bag with food scraps, empty bottles and cans, etc.
Needless to say, I was not a happy camper since I make it a point to make all my own stocks I use for cooking and was looking forward to several quarts of finished product.

One year, they ate the entire turkey. I was so mad I didn't get sandwiches.
Now I buy two turkeys, one for Thanksgiving and one for my own personal leftovers to cook the Friday after while I'm watching football. The turkey BLT poboy with leftover homemade cranberry sauce is the highlight of my weekend.
Thanksgiving is the only time of year I ever mess with Turkey, and I will not be denied.

Damn, bunch of people who can't cook a turkey up in here.

You do you Scotty P. Eat a pork steak if it works for you. No ragrets, right?

Nah, it was an honest mistake done by an OCD person about cleaning up.
She felt awful about it once she realized she messed up and never again repeated that offense in subsequent party visits.

- Spatchcock smoked turkey with butter rubbed all under the skin (after 24 hour garlicy brine)
- Andouille sausage gravy
- Loose boudin instead of stuffing
I do these things and let the rest of the chips fall where they may.

My post-thanksgiving stock is one of my favorite parts of the holiday
Damn
