Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......Gravy.

This is one of the rare times of year my health nazi family allows me to make and EAT gravy. I do NOT take my gravy lightly, it would seem that neither do you....

gravy is everything!! If you have even bad dressing some other family member made. The gravy makes it better!

Put enough gravy on anything it becomes meat!

I was just told by my health nazi wife, of all people, that a nice, thick pork green chili makes for an excellent gravy....of course I knew that.....
 
Fourth photo has the turkey taken out, deboned and fat and skin put back in liquid. Cook 30 more minutes at 350f. Take out and cool. Strain off everything to get your liquid base for gravy. Don't worry about the thyme leafs.
