Expecting company for Turkey Day? Spend time with your guests instead of spending time in the kitchen. Order your complete, fully cooked meal from Strack & Van Til, and you’ll be giving thanks for convenience and ease.

Enjoy a delicious taste of tradition without all the fuss.

“Choose from three different meals that you can simply heat and serve,” says Strack & Van Til Deli Director Kristin Snow. “Our fully cooked feasts mean no work, no mess and a hassle-free Thanksgiving celebration.”

The Traditional Turkey Dinner feeds six to eight people and features a moist and tender 10-12-pound cooked Butterball Turkey. Sides include two pounds of rich, homemade dressing; five pounds of Our Own fluffy mashed potatoes; 24 ounces of turkey gravy; and 15 ounces of cranberry relish. Priced at $75.99.

How about a Thanksgiving ham? The Traditional Ham Dinner serves six to eight guests and spotlights an 8-pound Smithfield Spiral Cut Ham. In addition to five pounds of Our Own fluffy mashed potatoes, 24 ounces of turkey gravy and 15 ounces of cranberry relish, diners can indulge in their share of two pounds of creamy green bean casserole. Priced at $59.99.

For a more intimate meal, try the Turkey Breast Dinner that’s enough for six people. Celebrate with three pounds (approximate weight after cooking) of Our Own roasted, boneless turkey breast, two pounds of rich, homemade dressing; five pounds of Our Own fluffy mashed potatoes; 24 ounces of turkey gravy; and 15 ounces of cranberry relish. Priced at $55.99.

Order extra sides to enhance your fully cooked meal. Try luscious garlic mashed potatoes, tender collard greens, mashed sweet potatoes and a wide variety of potato and pasta salads.

Start your holiday meal with a party tray or two.

“The Strack & Van Til Deli has a wonderful array of Grab-and-Go appetizer options,” notes Snow. “Choose cheese platters, Spinach Dipper Bowls, Southwest layered dip, several hummus varieties, smoked salmon, vegetable dill dip, spinach dip and bruschetta.”
Want to build your own charcuterie board? Shop the deli for specialty cheeses and meats, fruit spreads, hot honey, olives and crackers, says Snow.

What’s a holiday feast without dessert? Add the finishing touch to your Thanksgiving meal with silken pumpkin mousse, heavenly Cheesecake Delight, taffy apple salad or traditional bread pudding.
