Thanksgiving is a time for food, family, friends, and football (and naps during football games)! Obviously, we want to focus on the most important things, spending time with friends and family, and if you're strapped for time, the last thing you want to do is spend hours on a dish to bring.
I've collected some of my favorite super quick pick-up items that you can order ahead, pick up, and are still so delicious to share with your loved ones - we won't even judge if you put them into one of your dishes to make it look homemade!
Appetizer - TJ's Famous Cocktail Shrimp Platter
TJ's Seafood Market has some great selections for fresh seafood in DFW, and it is so easy to order up a platter of shrimp cocktail for a delicious appetizer before you really dig into the traditional Thanksgiving fare.
Main Dish - Greenberg Hickory Smoked Turkey
If you're into farm-to-table here in Texas, look no further than your local Central Market for a Greenberg smoked turkey - they're based in Tyler, Texas! If you aren't close to a Central Market, they also have online ordering for birds from 6 pounds all the way up to 13 pounds if you're feeding a crowd!
Desserts - Pies from Susie Cakes, Emporium Pies, or Village Baking Co.
Ok, you all know why we really love Thanksgiving - we all put our fat pants on for the pie of course! No matter if you're a pecan pie fan, a pumpkin pie lover, or looking for something totally different, all three of these phenomenal bake shops will be able to deliver the goods.
