[quote=Anonymous]We are usually 20-25 for Thanksgiving. We use plastic plates from CostCo - they come in dinner and dessert size and they're just as turkey-cuttable as china. But you don't have to wash them. Wrap silverware in napkins the day before, tie with a ribbon and serve up in a basket. Guests bring apps, rolls, desserts and booze. Coolers outside for cold drinks. Multiple app stations inside and outside. Make sure you get a big enough turkey, or get a breast as well. +1 on making sure you have big enough casseroles for sides -- if not, buy those big heavy foil pans and transfer cooked mashed potatoes, stuffing, etc. to serving dishes. We use a second oven next door (they're invited) to cook sides and cook the turkey in the house oven. Buffet style, for sure. We eat at the table, bar, patio table, TV trays, laps in front of the big screen football game. It's not fancy, but it's family. [/quote]
