How to get the most out of it
- Start with the turkey: plan on about 1 to 1½ pounds per person, a little more if you want leftovers.
- Fill in the guest list first, then assign dishes so nothing gets doubled up.
- Work the timeline backwards from dinner time. A frozen turkey needs about 24 hours in the fridge for every 4–5 pounds to thaw.
- Make one or two sides and the pie a day ahead to free up the oven.
