It's not bad. It's not good either. Honestly might be good with salsa or hot sauce. Let me try that.
Improved with hot sauce. Not great but not s bad as expected. I have a new "weird food combo" icebreaker

I was just over in West Virginia and had some fried green tomatoes, and I thought they were great!

Whenever someone is going on and on about delicious and super yummy their version of a dish is, I brace myself for it tasting like crap. In my experience, the people who make a big deal about their food are mediocre at best cooks.

So many hate Thanksgiving and turkey. For theove of god, brine your turkey people. Follow the NYT's brining recipe to a T. I am absolutely salavating at the throught of a nice, very tasteful and not dry turkey using that brine recipe and topped with gravy. Soooooooooo good.
Tried it. Still would rather have any other type of meat.
Yes thank you. I get so sick of the people who constantly claim if you don't like Thanksgiving food its only because it wasn't cooked correctly. Sorry but I have had it made by incredible chefs and its still not a great meal. Trust me no one is drooling over your dry brine or wet brine or whichever other method you are convinced makes it yummy. Its blah. Edible but not worth the effort and made because you are supposed to have on Thanksgiving. This is why no one ever wants it any other day than Thanksgiving.

Try dry brine and buy a quality turkey. Well raised turkey tastes so flavorful.
+1
The dry brine is the key and so much easier than the wet brine!
Honestly, the one year I bought a heritage turkey, I was underwhelmed for the price. Last year, I just used Giant's Nature's Promise organic and it turned out great.
This definitely helps!. If you brine and flavor the quality well raised turkey even the Thanksgiving haters can manage to choke down a piece or two once a year.

ps: I used it FOR ME. I'm sure as heck not serving this to anyone unexpectedly, just because it is so damn weird in concept.

Consider trying a nice fresh natural peanut butter lightly spread inside a sharp cheddar quesadilla.
Ew WTF?? Now that is controversial.
I KNOW.
But think about trying it sometime. It's not what you would expect at all.
You sweet thing. You really are pushing this!
OK, we might need a separate thread for the people you want to win over.
I have Ortega soft tortillas, shredded cheddar cheese and Jif. Will that work? Or do I need top tier ingredients?
Sure! I think natural peanut butter is better, but I be that would work. Or at least be worth a go.
How sweet of you to be willing to try!(I might just be crazy. I think I may have said it was the best thing my ex left me? Never would have tried on my own.)
Sorry about late reply -- I've been ODing on Political Forum and living in the land of migraines.
Have you considered that he may have been trying to slowly kill you?
No, this was early on, when things were still good. He'd occasionally grab a quick breakfast after a run, with a quesadilla wrapped around a piece of sharp cheddar. Added peanut butter for more protein. I thought it sounded DISGUSTING. (I KNOW. I really do.)
But it was oddly not peanut-buttery? Just, maybe, richer? more depth of flavor? Anyway, my work used to do themed potlucks before COVID. I was going to wait until we started back up and it was my turn, and I'd propose a theme of "unexpected combinations" and try it out on people. I'm kind of giddy that I might be able to do it anonymously instead.
Do you mean a quesadilla wrapped around cheese, or a TORTILLA?
I'm so glad you corrected that! I was so tired last night and definitely misspoke.
He used a plain dry tortilla wrapped around a thick slice of sharp cheddar, with added fresh-ground peanut butter. I liked it, unexpectedly, and over the years started using it in cheese quesadillas.
