Perfect timing with my ex, my parents had it at 11-11:30 and inlaws around 4PM.

My grandparents had it at 11-11:30. Small farm life eats lunch before noon.

Depends on when I remembered to get the turkey out so it can thaw. Are we only considering Thursday as an acceptable answer?

Noon

Gives those in the family who hunt a chance to get a good hunt in, come back, shower, get to the location and have a few drinks before it’s lunch time. You have the meal, then back to the woods with the remaining daylight

I prefer mid afternoon, but we always do it at night because wife’s brother always has to do lunch with his wife’s family.

They got me sitting down at 1130 this year.

Not sure how to feel....won't be able to fully enjoy the spread that early, but get out of there 30 minutes sooner.

With football, kids running around, people coming and going, we’ve pretty much quit the official sit down meal.

Start the day with a big breakfast and then start cooking.

All the food is ready a little after lunch and then it’s basically a continuous meal for the rest of the day.

Not before noon but 2pm seems late. I don't cook it so I don't really care.

When everything has finished cooking, no matter the time.
