Turkey-Shaped Bread Loaf − Golden Crown Panaderia (Albuquerque, NM)

For baker Pratt Morales, Thanksgiving is all about the turkey ... the bread turkey, that is! Morales, who has been baking bread turkeys for over 40 years, uses a molasses-and-honey dough to make the bird's dark meat "legs and wings," and a white-flour dough to make up its white meat "breast."

Turkey Dinner — Mike's City Diner (Boston)

Though Chef Jay Hajj admits this dish came about by "accident," it is now one of the diner's signatures. Nicknamed "Thanksgiving on a Plate" by some, including Guy, this dish lets customers enjoy the fixings of a traditional Thanksgiving meal all year long.

Pilgrim Sandwich — Mike's City Diner (Boston)
