Move your turkey-cooking operation out of the oven this Thanksgiving for an out-of-this-world meal that will help free up some space in the kitchen. If you want to take the cooking outside, there are plenty of excellent meals that you can execute using a grill, smoker, or fryer.
Alternatively, some great small kitchen appliances can get the job done quickly and effectively if you want to stay in the kitchen but still keep the oven free.
