Probably not. But taco meat is seasoned which is what I do not like. I also don't like lettuce, tomato, sour cream or basically anything else that goes with.

Oh Man! You’ll pass up the opportunity for Oyster Stuffing…
Who cares about the bird it about the oyster stuffing, garlic mashed potatoes, hard rolls, green beans casserole, thick turkey gravy, hot wilted leaf lettuce, toss salad and cold shrimp appetizer. The turkey taste better the second day anyways and then the third day comes the cream gravy turkey on corn bread

Not having many over for dinner so it's like a 12 lb bird.

Fab1 knows what he's talking about with liking the taco... nothing like a taco propped up on your table ready to be devoured. Face time with a taco is one of life's greatest joys and should happen multiple times each week.

Oyster Stuffing

11 cups 1?2" cubed white French bread (about 14 oz.)
6 slices bacon, cut crosswise into 1?4" strips
6 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted, plus more for
greasing the pan
6 shallots, thinly sliced
4 celery, thinly sliced
40 medium oysters, such as bluepoints,
shucked (about 1 lb.), with 1 cup of the
liquor reserved
1 cup chicken stock
1?4 cup madeira or port wine
1?3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 tbsp. chopped thyme leaves
2 tbsp. chopped sage leaves
1?2 tsp. Tabasco
1?4 tsp. fresh grated nutmeg
1?8 tsp. ground cloves
Kosher salt or sea salt and freshly ground black pepper,
to taste


1. Heat oven to 250?. Arrange bread cubes on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake, stirring occasionally, until dried but not browned, about 15 minutes. Let cool.


2. Put bacon into a 12" skillet; cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until crisp and its fat has rendered, about 10 minutes. Add 4 tbsp. of the butter and heat. Add shallots and celery, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add oyster liquor, stock, madeira or port, parsley, thyme, sage, Tabasco, nutmeg, cloves, and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a large bowl and stir in the bread cubes and oysters. Set aside to allow the flavors to come together for 10 minutes.


3. Raise the oven temperature to 400?. Transfer mixture to a buttered 2-qt. oval baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes, remove foil, drizzle with remaining butter, and continue baking until golden brown and crusty, about 30 minutes more.

Saw this and just wanted to mention it in regards to the guy who doesn't like tacos. Are you sure you aren't a supertaster?

We have 2 - 12 pounders. One in the oven and one fried. Just making sure there are plenty of leftovers.

For all you taco lovers, have you tried the black one?
