From The Hive: A day being preoccupied with a giant bird in your oven doesn’t sound like something to celebrate? Give yourself a break this year and celebrate thanks with mouthwatering selections from four-time James Beard Award Semifinalist executive chef Matthew McClure at The Hive’s Thanksgiving celebration. Friends will be impressed. Family will be thankful. The hardest part will be choosing between the House Made Campanelle with butternut squash and rosemary, the Swordfish with Brussel sprouts and shell beans, or the traditional Smoked Falling Sky Farm Turkey with cornbread stuffing and whipped potatoes. Pretty good problem to have, if you ask us.
