Thanksgiving is different this year, but even if you've never made so much as a single fixin', there's no reason you can't still enjoy a comforting, delicious feast with those you love. It'll just be over webcam is all - which, let's face it, has its own advantages. So throw on your favorite pj's and ready the mute button for when your uncle starts talking politics, because we're exploring a new kind of Thanksgiving in 2020! One that can largely be prepared ahead of time, in about 4 hours all told.

Note: apples turning brown is a result of oxidization, which can indeed be detrimental to your pie - it can give it a slight tinny, artificial apple taste. It won’t ruin it, but it won’t do it any favors either. My bad!
Thanks for the note!
So, if we made it fast will it still oxidize as much?
Hey my guy this is the perfect non-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving and now I can eat the best food all year and quick 🥰
@@eleazarp.4808 the shorter the apple stays out the best! But I'd suggest adding the citrus anyway! Definitely does nothing but add flavor!
@@eleazarp.4808 It won't, but I would still add some lemon zest to it if you aren't confident in your ability to move quickly.

"Turn your oven to it's lowest setting, mine is 200F"
You need a new oven, Andy. My oven's lowest setting is "Off."

Mine goes lower than off but... ok

1:44 "And Thyme, if you got it."
This is a last minute Thanksgiving, I'm clearly out of time.
Too much thyme on my hands.
💀🤣🤣🤣
holy heck I love you
I love that Babish's idea of "last minute" includes an overnight brine.
Yes
was just about to say this
most families it takes up to four nights to make everything for Thanksgiving prepping the night before is last minute
Well thanks giving dinner takes a very long time
As they've said, thanks giving prep often lasts 3/4 days, but babish himself mentions these things are optional. 7:58 "And that does it for all the things that can be optionally done ahead of time"
never knew that the phrase “tiny whisk until homogeneous” could be so comforting...
First Time?
the vinegar whisk is on the right

Heres a true last minute thanksgiving
A grocery store bought rotisserie chicken
Instant mashed potatoes
Canned cranberry sauce
Stove top stuffing
Canned gravy
Canned vegetables
Store bought pie
And voila, a true last minute thanksgiving meal, a meal that screams “I forgot it was thanksgiving”
Stove top stuffing is horrific. It tastes like 110% salt and nothing else.
A lot of grocery stores aren't open that day, or you need to get a day old rotisserie- which is a bummer lol. A chicken is quite easy to make!
@@MatthewSpencerKociol I like store bought stuffing but I add extra bread to it normally sourdough but I've done it with cornbread before too. Your right store bought has too much salt but with all the normal ingredients and extra bread it balances out rather well and tastes great
YES!!! You are a hero - people put way too much pressure on themselves for this meal. My relatives always thought you had to have 20 different dishes and all made from scratch. Ridiculous. Put some simple food on the table and enjoy the day. Happy Thanksgiving. I am grateful for your suggestion! : )
NEVER use instant mashed potatoes, those are absolutely horrible

Give Kendall a raise, that brussel sprout trick is GENIUS.
Made them today. They are freaking amazing!
I'm not usually a fan of roasted brussel sprouts, I don't hate them I'd just prefer them steamed but these ones I'm definitely going to try!
@@owenthompson4071 now I'm excited for tomorrow
I'm making a Thanksgiving meal for Christmas
“Totally doable in about four hours”
You overestimate my power!
I knew we were doing brussels sprouts but I hadn't decided precisely how I'd prepare them until I watched this video. In addition to bacon we also had some dried cranberries, so I tossed in a handful along with a few glugs of strawberry balsamic to make a vinaigrette of sorts with the bacon grease. YUM!
"Soft and sweet and thick..."
"Just like me."

Have you ever considered making greek style stuffing (with hamburger meat, chestnuts, pine nuts, among other things)? It’s honestly my favorite way of making stuffing and would love to see your take on it

Everything nice: Corn starch

@@taiqt7491 that's cute lol I like it
You should make Grandma Spankenheimer's Fruitcake from, "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer", movie when it's Christmas
I second this
I concur
I downright agree to thus
I'm here for this
THATS WHAT THT MOVIE IS NAMED!?!?!🤣🤣 yes I remember now
Andrew, you're ready to have a child since you've already mastered dad jokes.
Another welcome addition to cranberry sauce is a healthy splash of vanilla extract, at least when I make it. I also like to use orange juice in addition to the zest.
Babish: Goes about detailfully explaining how to prepare a thanksgiving meal from scratch
My Brain: seussp'n, SEUSSP'N, *SEUSSP'N*
Yes. He had me at the first suspin.
also b'hand
He seriously underestimated how long it would take me to do all of this.
Yup a week minimum for me
i think the key with this is timing like a lot of cooking and starting some of these in off times/at the same. Also assuming that you’re purely doing this (and already have everything you probably could, imo it’s just how used to multitask cooking or just quickly switching from one dish mid cooking to another)
nice pfp
Yes nice pfp
I’ll hold onto this for when I’m moved out of my parent’s house and forget Thanksgiving like I already know I will at least once.
When it comes to dealing with spillage on pies, for things that go into par-baked crusts you can just put the pie crust in and when its done pour it into the open oven. Means you're moving it as little as possible. I would also just put all pie plates on a cookie sheet so when you inevitably boil over at some point you don't have to clean the bottom of the oven.
I know this is basic, but on Christmas, make Donald's hot chocolate from Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas.
I thought I was the only one who watched that as a kid lol
Yeah but he already did Flanders Hot chocolate and there’s not a lot of ways to improve of that recipe
@@c.harlotte me and my mom watch it a couple times every december lol
For some reason I thought you were using code words to talk about McDonalds... Mickey... Donald's... w/e I'm dumb.

Title: Last minute thanksgiving
Babish: ok now we're gunna make our own croutons
@Dhiya Sundar what
@Dhiya Sundar who asked
HE SAID IT! HE REALLY SAID IT! HE SAID "fingies" YESSSSS
This was a great prep video to get my stomach ready for the monster meal we are about to put together! I hope everybody has a wonderful thanksgiving! Stay safe!
Haha yes! I have some easy and delicious Thanksgiving recipes that I’d love for you to enjoy today! I’m about a year into my cooking channel and I’d be happy to share my recipes with you 👩🏻🍳❤️ Have a blessed Thanksgiving Adam!
HE DID IT! He said "crushed clove of garlic" instead of "clove of crushed garlic". I can die in peace now. Thank you.
I legitimately have learned everything I know in the kitchen from this channel thank you so much for this and everything else.
Much love Babish💜
I tried out the bacon trick with the sprouts and it was BOSS. A little salt and pepper, covered everything with thick-cut bacon, and oven-roasted it. Came out tender, crispy around the edges, and super tasty. Doing my sprouts this way from now on. Thanks Babish!
"Until it reaches the consistency of Playdough, no not the Athenian philosopher, the.. (sigh of disgust) Hasbro product."
I imagine babish as a preschool scoffing at the taste of playdoh. To salty, complete mush, Yada Yada, then fast forward to his moment of disgust here.
@@ayrenaiwatson2302 how do you know what it tastes like...
@@asatalkingcat73 even if you haven’t ate play dough you know what it tastes like if you played with it
Behold, Play-dough's chicken!
Babish would only like play-doh made with kosher salt
"So first for the pie filling you're gonna want to plant an orchard..."
Why doesn’t this have more likesss 😫😫😫😂😂😂
2:25 I love that sugar container, I reuse those for flour, infused sugar, powder sugar, dried fruits etc
Can you also do a Last Minute Christmas Dinner episode? This year, the family agreed to have Homemade meals for the feast, and I was hoping for ideas as this year will be the first year I contributed to the annual feast
"last-minute Thanksgiving"
* has all ingredients on hand and starts preparing a full day ahead of time * 😂😂
We love ya, Babish+Team!
tbf he says it only takes 4 hours to create, and you don't even necessarily have to do anything the day before
where am I supposed to find a chicken neck? Also budget.

“...soft and sweet and thick- just like me”

this thanks giving was my first after having moved away from my home state
just my SO and i, and i gotta say, thanks so much for providing the resources you do- between this and the whole chicken basics, i was pulling up your videos every other minute to make sure i was doing things right
our dinner came out excellently btw!
Made homemade cranberry sauce for the first time this year. Added about a teaspoon of rose water right at the end, after it was off the heat. 10/10 would do again.
Nice to see, that Babish recovered from his Turturkeykey trauma last year
"Ribbed for your turkey's pleasure"
I can't believe I actually thought "nah, he won't use the tiny whisk this time"
It's never a question of if he will tiny whisk... But when he will tiny whisk
@@WillTheUndeadSmore and where
*fool*
@@db5094 and what
From the UK here and the way your Brussel sprouts are served is the way we have them here at Christmas, makes them delicious. Keep up the amazing work !!
Oh, hells yeah. This is how people who really love food, and love cooking food, operate in the kitchen. First time here, and I was rivited. This is the way I learned in my mother's kitchen. Just watching her as each holiday and the years rolled by. Each year I'd get a little more involved. Stock for the gravy, then making the gravy, making the stuffing, the taters and all with a zen mindfulness along with such care. This is old school cooking, and it's very much an art form.
My Thanksgiving plans just fell through, so the chicken, stuffing, and mashed potatoes here are my solo Thanksgiving tomorrow.
Happy thanksgiving! How did your chicken turn out??
I hope it turned out well too! It looks soo yummy ;w;
Hope this year is filled with more friends and loved ones than 2020 was 😊
This is you LAST MINUTE Thanksgiving? I wonder how much Babish does when he's not pressed for time
Starts prepping for next year's thanksgiving from christmas
most people prep a week+ ahead of time. it takes days to thaw a turkey
He just feeds the gods, no biggie :p
He raises his own turkey
That was pretty quick and easy for an entire Thanksgiving dinner. Even without his crazy multi-tasking skills, this could be knocked out in a couple hours by normal people. Lots of folks spend days preparing and then all day cooking.
My favourite part of the year are thanksgiving and Christmas dinners 😩
So I finally got to make the apple tart this year! Everyone loved it!! Thank you Andrew!
I don't even celebrate thanksgiving but I still find this entertaining.
Same it's not a thing where i am
Thanksgiving is one of the best holidays, 10/10 recommend trying it out
@@kamcorder3585 for those of us whom the holiday doesn’t actually apply (so everyone except America and Canada), all Thanksgiving would end up being is an excuse to have a Sunday dinner on a Thursday.
@@deffdefying4803 But you also need to have a nice conversation about things that you are grateful for
"You need to be emotionally prepared for some slippage." This is no joke! My mom got some slippage on her Thanksgiving pie crust a couple years ago, declared it "a f*cking nightmare" and had to go have a cry before she came back.
when I was a kid, we used to thicken our pan gravy with small scoops of mashed potato. I have no idea if that's a common practice or not, but it was certainly very tasty!
Thanks for the ASMR voice, this video ended up being my Thanksgiving and I gotta say - it wasn't that bad. Happy Thanksgiving folks and people of the Babishverse
I dropped my sandwich when he said, "Soft, sweet, and thick. Like me."
I appreciate that you made this for 1-4 people. We all need to avoid large gatherings this year, so I'm glad to see tips for a single family meal.
Yeah but the correct answer is to make 20-30lbs of turkey and have turkey sandwiches for days
@@kaldo_kaldo This is truly the American way.
I followed your recipe for the chicken, gravy and stuffing, and I have to stay I loved the crispy and moist chicken as well as the tasy stuffing. The gravy was too salty for me, but overall, I was happy. I will try the apple pie next ! Thanks!
I really appreciate you making videos that help people with accessibility issues! whether it’s because of money, or time, or disabilities, not everyone can handle making a full thanksgiving dinner. knowing it’s still possible to do helps 💕
I have some easy and delicious Thanksgiving recipes that I’d love for you to enjoy today! I’m about a year into my cooking channel and I’d be happy to share my recipes with you 👩🏻🍳❤️ Have a blessed Thanksgiving!!

Truly grateful for this man and his team. Made everything in the video and we couldn't be happier having to skip the turkey with family to fight against the virus. Needless to say there was not seconds but thirds.

"I've got chestnuts in my stuffing" would make a fantastic t-shirt.
It sounds vaguely dirty for some reason, but it's not.
I know some girls with stuffing in their chestnuts
Thank you so much, I'm doing this for Christmas since I'm socially distancing.
Stay safe everyone!
I've made this gravy 4 times now and it's always amazing!
A tip it took me a while to remember to do: when you're pouring liquid from a box like the stock in the beginning of the video, turn it around so that the spout is at the top instead of the bottom. It won't glug and splatter everywhere!
I was today years old when I learned this. 😳
P h y s i c s
Learned to do that after I learned how to properly put oil in the car - same method.
Important note for the Sage Sausage: Adding a couple teaspoons of maple syrup really bumps up the flavour to a whole 'nother level
coming through my mind
He’s done that in other videos where he made his own sage sausage
Love this! Any chance you could do a college student style christmas for one for all of us stuck in dorms over the holidays?

Never knew Babish was so “soft and thick”.

@@IndrasChildDeepAsleep down
I love to dry brine a chicken with Tony Chachere’s cajun seasoning and then air fry. The skin comes out so crispy and tastes like cajun bacon
This saved my life (well, specifically the life of our Thanksgiving meal...). Just a note, the stock recipe wasn’t listed on the Thanksgiving recipe list on the website, which was a little inconvenient especially given that you (rightly!) hyped it so much. Love the video though, thanks for posting!

I love bacon and Brussels sprouts but I always sauté them together if I add bacon but I prefer roasted sprouts. That idea is a life changer I will be trying those as soon as we get our oven fixed
I missed the part where he said refridgerate overnight and thought he was taking a tray to the oven right after covering it in plastic wrap "And noone can tell me otherwise" at 7:25
Why did Babish sound like his soul was leaving his body the moment he uttered the words "Hasbro Product"?
*whistles in My Little Pony*
I cried at the end there a little. We are making it through 2020. 2021 may be worse but we will make it none the less
I'm taking some of these tips for sure, specifically the doctoring-up of the store-bought stock. I *could* make my own stock but its a lot of work that I don't have time for, but making better stock out of store bought is 100% doable.

"last minute thanksgiving" "also lets make our own croutons because we have time for the addition nobody thinks of"
Let's make our own croutons, because everyone else has already bought out the croutons by the time we got to the store. Let's go with apple crumble, and homemade cranberry sauce, for partially the same reason.
Clearly you didn't thought that the "last minute" is actually WAY longer than you think when it comes to Thanksgiving.
So yeah. A failed attempt at sarcasm, you two.
@@g.s.5110 Besides, it’s thanksgiving dinner. If you’re tasked with making an entire thanksgiving dinner and you choose to wait until the last minute to make everything, you probably shouldn’t be the one cooking it.
