Anyone order their Thanksgiving turkey or ham from Boston Market?

No, are you thinking about it? There aren't many Boston Markets around any more, at least not here.

Definitely considering it. Just want to know if anyone can tell me if its good cause it's not cheap. I have one a couple of miles from my home.

In the later years that my parents were still alive they loved Boston Market. We'd always ordered and would have a complete Boston Market dinner on Christmas! It was actually pretty darn good! I did anything that my parents wanted near the end so if that made them happy? I did it, gladly! Enjoy yours!

I haven't had their Thanksgiving dinner but we eat there occasionally. If for whatever reason I wasn't cooking that would be my first choice. The food I've eaten there is better than any grocery store's Thanksgiving meals I've had and I've had a few through the years at relatives homes.

I totally agree with Cardamom. The way I feel about Boston Market is that if I can't make it myself, that's where I would get my dinner from! Be sure to get the sweet potato casserole: it masquerades as a vegetable, but is really dessert-I love it! Poodlepet

We went through a few years, when DH was working and not available to make dinner, when we had a complete meal for Easter. We were never dissatisfied and thought the food was as close to homemade as we could get. Our favorite sides-----the mashed potatoes, dressing, spinach and the gravy. Enjoy and have a wonderful holiday.

This isn't about Boston Market but I bought the already prepared meal last year for Thanksgiving from Bob Evans and it was excellent.

I'm glad you did things to make your parents happy. Seems that all the posts are positive so I hope the OP gives Boston Market a try.

We all LOVED Boston Market until they all closed by us. If you have a Boston Market close by I would go for it!! YUM

Boston Market is awesome, I usually go there when I'm in the area of one. But as many said, there aren't many around anymore.

One thing I don't get there is any beef item- their pot roast, for example. It was so fatty!! Because of that I never tried the ribs- or any other beef item they brought in for a limited time.

I haven't been to one in a long time. Sounds like a good idea.

I always go to Boston Market when I get a craving for a Thanksgiving meal when it isn't Thanksgiving. Their food is pretty darn good. Their chicken pot pie is the best. Go for it!

Yahhhhhh! I read through the thread, thinking....if one was still in my area I'd go there. Love their food. So happy you committed to the decision. Please post back and let us know how it went. We'll all have to eat at Boston Market vicariously through you...appears they closed in many places, not just mine.

Please let us know k9buddy how the meal was. Thank you.

This thread made me long for that sweet potato casserole, so I decided to see if there was a copy cat recipe-blissfully there was!!! As I type it's in the oven. I didn't have time to look over everything, but there were quite a few Boston Market recipes which is a wonderful thing for those suffering tore closures. That being said, there is nothing like their chicken Poodlepet2 (formerly Poodlepet)

I've never done it but would not hesitate at all if ai was alone or just having dinner for 2 on Thankgiving. You wouldn't wind up with so many leftovers that way. When I had my first apartment and lived alone it wouldn't make sense to cook big meals. I could go to Boston Market get some sliced turkey, stuffing and a vegetable and feel festive.
