Seriously, who the fuck does this? I'd never heard of throwing away all the dark meat before. Is this some baby boomer wastefulness that was lost on subsequent generations?

I dont have horror stories so much as the way my mom cooks is extremely annoying and substandard whenever she isnt making one of her really good 'signature' dishes.

Does not pound her chicken, doesn't time or measure anything properly, has extremely shitty knife skills, has no sense of portion control, under seasons, etc. And she thinks criticism is "being mean" so even just trying to get her to stop making 7 massive chicken breasts for 3 people + 3 side dishes is unacceptable. I grew up thinking shit like burnt rice and overly tough/bland chicken was normal til I started learning on my own from the internet.

The reason you bring your bf/gf to a family festivity is because you think he or she might be in the future part of the family. Bonding through such experiences is part of becoming family. If you niggers wouldn't bring your bump and dump cunts and meat sticks to family dinners, you wouldn't need to cringe thinking of a sweet family moment.

I don't know, that is weird. Seems like a waste.
I thought most people have a preference when someone carves the turkey. Would you like light or dark meat?

My Dad usually hauls the carcass home to cut up and boil down. Some people just don't want to mess with it I guess.

He used to work in the meat industry and I guess some places threw away the bones before realizing they can sell them for premium money. Especially now since people want to make stocks out of them.

Nah, OP taking the carcass bird home ain't that bad.

yea, my family use to do the same thing, well not as bad, but they would dry the fuck out of the turkey. that stopped the day I was a kid and refused to eat the turkey, when asked why, I said it "was dried out shit" trying to quiet me down to not embarrass them they told me use gravy, I caked it in gravy, cut it into the smallest pieces possible and ate it, looked my mom in the eyes "It did nothing" they stopped forcing me to eat it, I finished off with a bunch of bread and went to my room.

Nothing really happened where I can see it

Next year I don't even bother with turkey, they put some on my plate and my exact response, see they didn't care about my language much, but around family I was to not really say anything horrible, "Why the fuck did you make it like shit for so many years?"

Apparently some of my extended family heard and laughed about that, that was the last time I ever ate/tolerated shitty turkey.

Just don't overcook it. You may need to just cook it a bunch of times until you get it. Err on the side of underdone until then.

If it's the thing chops and I'm breading them, I usually just cook them till the breading is nice golden brown.

If it's a thick chop and you can use a meat thermometer start with 145*f, let it rest, and see if you like it that way. Too raw? Cook it a little bit longer and taste again after a few minutes.

You can eat pork chops mid-rare in the US although I prefer medium.

its orange juice orange marmalade and whatever else you want to flavor it with. Or are you someone that just despises cooking in general?
Plus, especially if you aren't a good cook your family had something from you that wasn't shit and wanted you to feel useful. Before my brother got married all he made was green bean casserole because that was the one thing he didn't fuck up.

My dad is the most incompetant cook ive ever seen. His cooking is classifed as a weapon of mass destruction by the U.N. I lived with him for 2 years and banned him from cooking and did all the cooking everyday
<he buys bought a 25 dollar lamb roast.
<I plan to make a nice fancy dinner complete with redwine, french bread and homeade garlic infused olive oil
<marinated the roast in the olive oil infusion with lemon pepper and other things(I cant rember the others because this was almost 4 years ago)
<marinated it for 2 days.
<I warned him not to interfere with the food at all and that I would deal with everything
<put the roast in the oven for 350 for 45 minutes
<pull it out and cut it down the middle
<shit its still a bit pink
<warn my dad not to touch it at all. I was goings to go and make set the dinner table
<It took longer than expected since my dad has no concept of having shit that looks nice. none of his plates match and almost all of them have chips and or cracks on them
<manage to set the table to look nice
<come back to the kitchen
<the son of a bitch put the entire roast in the microwave for 20 fucking minutes and it had already been in there for almost 15 minutes
<I pull it out......its ruined. Its conmpletly dry, all the juices were burned up in the microwave. The roast had lost all of its flavor
<I sat there in the kitchen almost crying over how my hard work was ruined by my idiot father
<he cheerfully looked at the roast and assumed it was done and started carving from it
<had the fucking nerve to tell me it was crap and that it was like eating a piece of charcoal........I wanted to kill him
My dad has the tastebuds of a dog, litterally as long as the food doesnt kill him he will eat anything. He legitmatly things that people who are chefs are a wasted career because all food should do is keep you from starving, he doesnt think food has any obligation to taste good

Similar situation here. My wife hated barbecue chicken and thought it was awful before she met me because her mother's bbq chicken is so fucking bad. Same goes for things like bacon, who my in-laws always burn black (or "crispy" as they call it) and several other dishes my wife always assumed were shit because of how her mom cooks them.

Be me, a collegefag. Around Xmas about to leave dormhouse and dorm mom says she'll be having a potluck party with her ladyfriends and to help myself anon when I get home to leftovers. My dorm mom is a well known academic writer who's big in the feminist community so I have a clue what kind of women will be at the party. Come home drunk from bar. Super starving. See literal feast laid out in dining room and kitchen. Help myself to food as I'm ravenous hungry. There's even turkey and ham in warming oven. Even alcohol with mixers so drink a ton more. Roommates are asleep. I pig out. See dessert table. Lots of cakes and pies. I indulge. Then I see a tray of what looks like apple crumble or Brown Betty. Get a slice and don't bother heating it and scoop it in my mouth. It tastes like garbage. I'm in shock how bad it is. It tastes like if you scooped up a cat box and served it as a pie. I crunch in wondering why the apple tastes funny. It's turnip. The oatmeal also is as hard as grit and tastes like kitty litter. I finally spit it out in the garbage and wash out my mouth. What the fuck it must've been some vegan dish with no dairy used at all and no sugar, salt or cinnamon and nutmeg? Who makes this shit? It also tastes like the lady is a chain smoker who doesn't wash her hands and has a ton of cats. A crazy cat feminazi vegan brought this shit dish. My stomach then suddenly growls. I run to the bathroom and puke out everything I ate and drank. I'm sick with food poisoning for a week. I leave the dorm in January for my own apartment as a result.

I'm in a similar situation as him where I don't care criticize or she will throw a fit and tell me to cook instead. Which is fine since I don't hate cooking, but now its in a bad atmosphere and everything is ruined.

My mother in law.

When she visits i have to hide curry, chili and garlic away and say i don't have any.

no matter what you're cooking she'll pour that shit into it before tasting the food.. it drives me mad!

Offer to cook together, help her out, etc. It will be fun for both of you and you can give suggestions in a more subtle and natural way.
