It turned out super well because of this guide.<br /><br />Also, my family is big into gardening. We grew 400 lbs of heirloom tomatoes this summer which turned into 30 quarts of spaghetti sauce in our freezer. I based this recipe on your simple tomato sauce recipe and havent found anything i like better. We have done this same practice for 3 summers.<br /><br />My family also loves your cheese sauce on macaroni. My boys love your nacho cheese joke.<br /><br />My wife now knows what a roux is because of you! She also makes your apple pie recipe every year<br /><br />Thank you so much.

This was not my first time making a turkey. I have been cooking turkeys for years. However, this year I followed your directions and I had rave reviews! Everyone LOVED it! My husband even volunteered to clean the bones off for me to make sure he got every delicious morsel. <br />Thank you for taking the time to make your videos.
