Review: Boston Market Thanksgiving Take-Out
I had a Boston Market take-out for Thanksgiving this year. First time
ever. I thought it might be good because their food is usually decent. For about $50.00 we got the 12 person whole turkey dinner with two side dishes and corn bread and gravy. Overall it was an excellent value. Here are the details: 1. Turkey - very good quality, maybe the best turkey I have ever had. Came cooked, refigerated and with it's own pan. Heated it for 90 minutes. Only problem was the turkey grease leaked through the pan after the cooking bag was cut (thankfully this did not happen in the oven). 2. Stuffing - all right. I have had better but also worse. Lots of vegetables mixed in. 3. Mashed potatos - all right. I have had better and much worse. Kids loved them. 4. Corn bread - excellent. This is really why I went to Boston Market. 5. Gravy - all right. I have had much better. So if anyone's wondering wether or not to do it I will tell you it's excellent value and everyone will enjoy it. |

Some years ago, at Christmas, we did not fare so well. We got a similar dinner except that we ordered ham instead of turkey. The ham was not at all good. In fact, we really didn't eat it and took it back the following day. It was extraordinarily fatty and had a lot of gristle. We ordered this on the basis of having eaten at this Boston Market more than a few times, and having ordered ham as the entree. It had always been good. -- Wayne Boatwright *¿* ____________________________________________ Give me a smart idiot over a stupid genius any day. Sam Goldwyn, 1882-1974 |
