We are having company for thanksgiving and don't want to cook. We'd like to eat in. So, my question is do you have a recommendation, good or bad, for preordered dinner? I'm thinking fresh market, publix or another venues... thanks for the help.

How about Bob Evans. They used to put together a nice Thanksgiving package. Maybe someone who has had it will speak up. You do have to order in advance.

Bob Evans do it. I believe Cody's do as well.

If you do Fresh Market be aware that "warming" requires 2-21/2 hours cooking before serving. Rest of dinner was just great.

Bob Evans or Fresh Market both offer interesting selections. But of course you have to order ahead.

A few years back we were in a spot and got the entire works from Wegmans. My wife loved the meal...That says it all. It was great!

Um, no Wegmans here.

I did Cody's a few years back and it was good.

We got ours from Fresh Market last year and everyone enjoyed it.

I'm getting mine from Fresh Market as I did last year. I loved it when Red Sauce provided Thannksging Dinner Catering, but alas, no more. It's a great dinner for small group like my little family. Only six of us. I like to be at home with the family and have private time. Better than a restaurant for me.

Cody's $49.95 for 8 people Turkey, ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, pineapple sauce, green beans, rolls and butter, and pumpkin pie.

3520 259- 8500 I ordered mine this this morning.

For the past two Thanksgivings, Bob Evans has been my choice. Really good. Boneless Turkey Breast (Or Ham), bread and celery dressing, mashed potatoes, sweet corn, green beans with ham, cranberry relish, gravy, rolls, pumpkin pie (the best I have every eaten) with whipped topping. 2 sizes
serve 4 is 49.99. serve 8 is 79.99. (with the 8 you also get their pumpkin bread loaf) First year there were 4 of us-- so I ordered the serve 4---had lots of leftovers. Last year I had 10 people for dinner so I ordered 2 of the large ones----so much food. Delicious. You pick it up the day before---

Thanks for the ideas. Just curious, anyone try Publix?

Yes, I did last year. I didn't like it at all. My guests thought it was okay but maybe they were just being polite. I wouldn't recommend them.

We tried them a couple of times a few years ago. The turkey was very good but didn't care for the cornbread dressing. It was a little on the wet side and not much flavor. The other sides were okay. I'm a big fan of Publix but won't recommend their Thanksgiving dinner.
