We have been doing this for years - as soon as the turkey is out of the oven and cooled enough to touch - me, my sister and a family friend all fight over the skin off the turkey. LOL
It wouldn't be Thanksgiving if their wasn't "bickering" over that skin...LOL

I love the skin on turkey and chicken as long as it is crispy.

I prefer crispy chicken skin. Dad always carved the turkey and seems everyone got a little bit of the skin on each slice.

Wow, I'm not the only skin lover here. :D But it was so hectic getting dinner ready for 15 (a lot for me) that I totally forgot about the skin. Oh well.

My Dad & I fight over it every year! Definitely the best part. I have to agree - MUCH better when crispy! :D
