From News Nation:
“Don’t feel like cooking this
Thanksgiving? These restaurants are offering complete pre-cooked feasts to-go”
This year, be thankful that
someone else is offering to cook. If the thought of preparing an entire
Thanksgiving feast is too much to stomach, fear not: Plenty of national
restaurant chains and retailers are selling heat-and-serve options that barely
require any prep work — aside from picking up the phone or placing an online
order. Feeling less-than-motivated to dish up your own dinner? Try one of the
following options and free yourself up to focus on friends, family, football,
or anything else that has nothing to do with cooking.
Bob Evans The “Farmhouse
Feasts” at Bob Evans include turkey, ham or both, along with sides and
desserts. The largest serves up to 10 people, but meals for smaller, more
intimate gatherings are also available. Customers can also choose to pick up
their orders or arrange for delivery.
Boston Market Boston
Market has complete meals for up to 12 people, with options for not only
turkey, but prime rib and spiral ham. Sides and desserts are included with most
meals, but customers can order extras à la carte. Select meals are available
for delivery, too, for customers who order by Oct. 23.
Bravo! Italian Kitchen and
Brio Italian Grill Bravo! Italian Kitchen and its sister restaurant Brio
Italian Grill are offering “Thanksgiving to go” bundles for between three and
six people. Larger families can opt for the restaurants’ “half-pan” or “full
pan” catering options, which feed between 10 and 20. Orders must be placed by
Nov. 23 at 8 a.m.
Bucca di Beppo Both small
and large Thanksgiving feasts are available for pre-order at Bucca di Beppo.
Customers can also pick between the “heat & eat” option, which requires
reheating, or the hot, “ready to serve” option. Orders must be placed by 8 a.m.
EST on Nov. 23.
The Capital Grille If you
can handle preparing the turkey, The Capital Grille’s locations will provide
the sides — and just the sides — in a convenient “Thanksgiving at Home” bundle.
Customers can pre-order for pickup on the 24th or 25th.
Cracker Barrel Cracker
Barrel’s holiday offerings include turkey dinners for families small and
semi-large, with traditional feasts (a main, sides, desserts) that serve up to
10 people. Additional family-style sides can be purchased as add-ons, just in
case the crowd is feeling extra hungry.
Golden Corral Buffet chain
Golden Corral is offering to-go holiday dinners featuring turkey, ham or fried
chicken. Orders must be placed 72 hours prior to pickup, but “last-minute”
orders may be accommodated at each individual restaurant’s discretion.
The Honey Baked Ham Company When
your company specializes in hams, it’s a safe bet they’re offering holiday
meals. Fans of The Honey Baked Ham Company can currently order meals — with ham
or turkey — for pick-up in store, or shipped straight to their doors.
Maggiano’s Little Italy Maggiano’s
is cooking up take-home Thanksgiving meals for families or four or five,
complete with a starter (Caesar salad), main course (with turkey and ham, as
well as sides) and pumpkin cheesecake for dessert. Customers can pre-order the
cold meal bundle, available for pickup on Tuesday and Wednesday, or the hot,
ready-to-serve bundle, available on Thanksgiving Day.
Popeyes Popeyes is taking
on turkey for Thanksgiving with the return of its precooked — but frozen —
Cajun-style turkeys (sides and desserts not included). The take-home turkeys
are only available at participating locations, and customers are encouraged to
call or visit their local restaurants to inquire about availability.
Whole Foods Whole Foods
has complete Thanksgiving meals and à la carte entrees available for pre-order
ahead of Thanksgiving, including a feast for 12 featuring turkey, ham, sides
and dessert. Orders must be placed by Nov. 23, while supplies last.
