Have you considered a roast leg of lamb. It's delicious. Simply cut some slits in the meat (not to deep) and insert some cloves of garlic. About a half dozen or so should be good. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and lay bacon on the top. Roast at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for a few hours depending on size of lamb.

We always make a fresh or smoked ham as well as turkey because not everyone eats turkey, even on Thanksgiving. Also, a pork crown roast is a show stopper for any occasion. Go to your butcher and let him prepare it for you (per # people) and tell him to give you those little white paper "leggings" to put on the bones that stand up around the roast. Serve with apple walnut stuffing & orange-cranberry sauce and no on will even miss the Turkey! Enjoy!

I presume you are referring to the American Thanksgiving holiday. If so I'm with momcat and dogloverd; as two separate courses: for me it would probably be a chilled hot-smoked fish, perhaps mackerel with a variety of dipping sauces, followed by a venison roast with a fancy brown sauce. Accompanied by wines not from the large popular west coast growing areas but from the east coast: perhaps a red from Virginia and a white
from New York or southern New England.

Here is a recipe that is definitely not the norm for Thanksgiving, and it could certainly be served with a flourish suitable for the Thanksgiving table:
BAKED ROCK FISH STUFFED WITH CRAB IMPERIAL
1 to 3 lbs. rockfish
2 slices bacon
2 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. lemon juice
STUFFING:
1/2 lb. crab meat
1 egg
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 slices bread (crumbs)
Mix all ingredients together. Place in fish cavity. Put bacon strips on top of fish. Sprinkle lemon juice over fish. Cover. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour uncovered, bake until brown.

Baked ham (the kind with a bone).
OOPS!! missed that part.
Venison is popular around here--and deer season is open during Thanksgiving.
How about crown roast of pork?

Duck is Really good! Try Rabbit too. Seriously! They taste awesome. Rabbit has its own spicy unique taste! Wild Rabbits/ducks now! Not ones out the pet store.
Ask an Louisiana Person they will tell you how awesome they taste!

I like ham.many people use foods unique to region, shrimp salmon , wild game . Turkey is only tradition because it is supposed to be what first Pilgrims had, no evidence to prove this.
