Quick Tip
Letting meat rest before slicing allows the juices to redistribute. Slice across the grain to break up chewy fibers and make
the meat more tender.

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
