@maggieeisenberg I'm glad it could help - carving a turkey (or a roast chicken for that matter) was one of those things that I was also super intimidated about doing until I tried it, but it really isn't too hard to do, and it only gets easier each time you do it! Hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving!

This is so helpful! I've never been confident in carving, but now I want to give it a try. Thanks!
