A lot of negative comments in this thread. How about a regular family of 5 can actually have a decent Thanksgiving for only $40.

Some of you need to think of it like that. A lot of families are just trying to get by with food on the table and this is a way for them to have a nice holiday meal together.

Not everyone is trying to feed 10-20 people. Just some "food" for thought.

To estimate you typically say 1lb per person so it feeds 14 and that takes all the waste into consideration. Most people eat 8oz or less if you actually keep track.

Most of a 14 pound turkey is waste. You don't get anywhere near 14 pounds of meat off it.

And in my experience, "most people" don't care for dark meat, so just using a calculator isn't necessarily going to tell you what you may actually need to feed X guests.
That's surprising because my family loves dark meat, which is why we eat turkey wings and drumsticks often. And we order KFC's drumsticks and wings special every Tuesday. We also love breast meat but only have turkey breast at Thanksgiving (other than cold cuts and other processed foods, which were ear throughout the year). My Chinese co-worker tells me that Asians also prefer dark meat. In his family, the guest of honor gets the dark meat.

Quote from Dr. J :
I've been spatchcocking turkeys the past few years (big ones, 20 lb+) and will never roast one the "usual" way again. Cooks MUCH quicker, more evenly and it stays juicy. I prep for spatchcock (removing breastbone and breaking the back, basically, as well as removing the legs because the biggest pan I have can't fit them if they're still connected), brine as usual overnight (I use Alton Brown's recipe), then cook on a bed of vegetables (celery, carrots maybe onion). What would usually take like 5 hours takes 2-3 and the end result is much better.
We break the turkey apart. The breast is skinned then sous vide at 150°F for about 4 hours. Our family doesn't like white meat unless it is done sous vide. When done correctly, the breast rivals dark meat in tenderness and juices. The wings and drumsticks, along with the breast skin, are then air fried for crispiness. To save time, we might even microwave the wings and drumsticks a little before air frying. The air fried breast skin is then placed back on the breast for serving. Full credit to Serious Eats for this method of cooking turkey.

We don't get to do the traditional Norman Rockwell carving, but everyone agrees that it's some if the best turkey they've ever tasted. Seriously guys, you don't know what you're missing if you've never tried turkey or chicken breast done sous vide. The result is juicy, tender, velvety white meat that can't be achieved in the oven.

Dont think anyone will take a donation of a frozen bird.
You are incorrect. Most churches, food pantries and missions would love a free turkey this time of year. You can also call a local school and ask if they have families on a list for donations. With so many losing SNAP benefits you could ask around your immediate friend group and I bet they know someone in need.

Some people are hung up on the stereotypical turkey presentation but IMHO what's the point of that if it's like chewing sawdust. You've got a good photo but dinner sucks.

The attached was last year (22-23 lb). The biggest problem with conventional cooking methods is that the lower part of the bird takes longer to cook, so the method is almost designed to dry the hell out of the white meat before the dark meat is done. The solution is to cook the entire bird more evenly which what sous vide and spatchcocking do. The problem with sous vide is you need special equipment and it takes longer.

This is the only helpful comment in this thread. Discussing the true value of this deal vs arguing about what people eat.
No its not, in fact its quite misleading. Maybe half the prices are close, most are not, x2 boxes of stuffing for $1.50, in what country? They run atleast $3-4 each

You might want to actually click on the link and look at the Aldi prices before posting that drivel. $1.58 for 2 boxes.

Looks great. Since everyone is sharing tips I started spatchcocking the turkey years ago, the switched to parting it out and grilling indirect. This has the advantage of being able to remove each piece when done, not having dark and white pieces attached.
This is after brining like I do BBQ chicken, in Publix sweet tea and salt.
Finally, when its time to crisp up skin, I take a jaccard and GENTLY prick the skin only (don't slam it through the meat) and it allows fat to render out and crisp up really nice.
I dont buy these packages, but if I did I would make sweet potato pie and pumpkin fritters out of it.

I don't know what your problem is mate, but this is a kid friendly website, no "spatchcocking" allowed.

Did you get your numbers from 2018, by chance? Just looking at two easy lookups - the only 15oz canned pumpkin at my store is $1.09, not 50c, and whipoped dairy topping is $2.19 (the cheapest version), not $1.50. I had Co-pilot scrape typical Aldi prices and came up with $66.72. I'm sure if you caught each of those items at the yearly low you could get them for under $40, but all in one trip at one point in time - doubtful. WalMart's price was even higher, but walmart generally only has retail prices on their site and better pricing in store (if you're brand flexible). Of course, buying a la carte lets you drop things you don't want for your feast, so there's potential economy to be had, but if Peppermint Patty invites herself and 8 friends over, $40 for a real meal seems like a pretty good alternative to popcorn, toast, and jellybeans.
and 10 lbs of potatoes isn't $2.

What exactly is deceptive about telling you exactly what you're going to get for $40?

The "servings" advertised are completely inline with every other food item you buy at the store.

I guess you are sporting a Hitler avatar, so your comment makes more sense in that context.
