It’s time to try out a different bird.

The Thanksgiving Bird of 2020 Is Chicken. Discuss.

Epi’s overarching theme for Thanksgiving this year is Thanksgiving Every Way. Which means we have a Thanksgiving menu for every holiday situation 2020 could throw at you: a small Thanksgiving, an inexpensive Thanksgiving, a Thanksgiving thrown by cooks who have never attempted Thanksgiving before. I’ll go into more details on those menus later. Today, I want to talk about a Thanksgiving that focuses on...chicken.

“Turkey, especially boring Thanksgiving turkey, is totally thrill-less,” writes Epi staff writer Kendra Vaculin. That’s a hot take, but you don’t necessarily have to agree with her to swap your Thanksgiving bird this year. As Kendra points out, a Thanksgiving chicken is smart—and particularly smart in 2020—for several reasons. It’s affordable. It’s small. Most convincingly, a chicken is easily dressed up for the holidays—just check out Kendra’s Miso-Butter Roast Chicken With Acorn Squash Panzanella as proof.
