Thursday Night Teevee Turkey Soup Turkey soup almost as good as mom's. So now that this cooking game is in my ball park, I circumvent the whole Thanksgiving dinner thing any time I feel like it.

If you get turkey breast you'll pay a fortune, and legs are full of tendons and take forever to pick clean.
Thighs are a great bargain.
Two or three per pot will do. This seems like a lot of turkey, but it tends to disappear during the cutting up stage. Go to the grocery store and pick up the ingredients. For health reasons, be sure you get both your turkey and your Moosehead Beer ice cold. Put some water in a soup pot.
