Thanksgiving turkey
November dinner centerpiece
A Thanksgiving turkey is the roasted bird that serves as the centerpiece of the traditional American Thanksgiving meal.
The phrase can refer to the dish itself or to the whole ritual of preparation: Who's making the Thanksgiving turkey this year?
By extension, any elaborate holiday meal preparation: I'm not up for the whole Thanksgiving turkey production.
