If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make travel vlogs of all the exciting places I visit. I started travel vlogging about 8 years ago because I wanted to see more of the world and be able to watch back some of my adventures. I also make weekly comedy videos every Sunday on my main channel usually revolving around funny differences between British vs American things! Anyway, thanks for stopping by!

You managed to cook a proper meal in a non traditional country for the event and you have done a better job than I have. Great job
Thanksgiving is practically british food anyways.
@@occasionalcooper8814 very similar to British Christmas food
I like when Bliss pops up in vlogs. She's a lovely human :)
Warms my heart x
Well done!!! I'm impressed! This was my 25th Thanksgiving, as an adult in charge, and I'm just now feeling as if I have it down, but you even made fried onions and a pumpkin pie FROM SCRATCH! Good for you!! I can tell you have a Thankful heart after all you were going through this time last year. Happy for you. 😊🦃
I'm studying in the Netherlands this semester and did not realize how much I'd miss Thanksgiving until it actually rolled around. This video felt like a hug. It was so nice to see everyone working together and enjoying each other's company. I hope you guys had the very best day! The turkey looked wonderful!
I'm a couple months behind on the vlogs 😅 but slowly catching up. All the food looked fantastic! Very happy to see all of the gang hanging (specially Luke and Bliss, my fav guests)
All from scratch?? That's amazing! We don't ever do any of it from scratch😂😂 and we didn't even cook this year. We had Jack In The Box delivered instead.😂😂
WELL DONE!!! 🦃
The cuisine looked superb! There is a CZcams channel called Kiwi Americans, a USA family which lives in New Zealand and the first year she made a Pumpkin Pie from scratch. The next year she paid a fortune for the tin because she felt the real pumpkin was not sweet enough. Personally, I am sure I would prefer the fresh one, but I suppose it is all dependent on what you are used to. Thank you for the video!
The type of pumpkins used for pies (I think they're called "sugar pumpkins) are not the same ones that we use for jack o'lanterns here in the US at least. So it's entirely possible they may have had the "wrong" type of pumpkin available to them for pie.
@@LiqdPT Thank you for the update. Appreciated!
Evan loves to make things difficult for himself.
I am 44 years old and I have never had a completely from scratch Thanksgiving. I'm exhausted by this video I think I'll stick to the some pre-made, some homemade stuff... America from Florida/Massachusetts
you are an excellent cook
You should add orange juice and orange zest to the cranberry relish, better yet, use blood orange. It is wonderful.
That was in there
@@evan Ah, missed it.
It was stressing me out immensely that you had long sleeves on for the turkey handling part!i had the feeling of getting messy so would need short sleeves and hair up 😂😂
Wow, I can't believe you did everything by scratch! Even the cream of mushroom and stock? So much work! We do a lot of the big stuff homemade, but always cheat and get the store bought stock and stuff like that. Looked amazingly yummy!
This was such a sweet video.
Great job! Happy Thansgiving in a few days 2023 from America 🇺🇲
recently been really enjoying your channel and not much else on youtube
As a British person I have only experienced Thanksgiving dinner once. A lovely American lady cooked for us. I had never had pumpkin pie or cornbread before and I adored it. The only thing the brits at the table didn't like was the marshmallows in the sweet potatoes
Good job, thanksgiving with friends is a great way to celebrate it. Helps get everyone together.
That was a nice meal.
Oh wow! My grandmothers (both paternal and maternal) would have been so excited to see you making everything from scratch! They certainly always welcomed any of their children and grandchildren who were interested in learning to come help make things. My paternal grandparents lived in another town so my sister and I usually didn’t get to learn too many holiday recipes (though we learned other recipes when visiting on nonholidays), but my maternal grandparents lived just up the block from us and so we could walk early in the morning up there to help with cooking holiday meals (plus both grandparents had the rule that those who don’t help cook and setup for the meal are the ones who help put away and clean up after the meal and my sister and I were definitely more into cooking, setting the table, etc than putting food away, cleaning up, etc....mostly because our parents worked and so when we got home from school we’d hangout with friends for an hour and then cook dinner, eat, cleanup, do homework while watching television, and then our parents would be home at 10pm; dad owned a business and mom was an assistant manager at a retail store in the mail as well as district manager assistant for the company she worked for). You did an amazing job! It all looks so yummy! Glad you got to celebrate Thanksgiving in your own home with some of those nearest and dearest to you! Thank you for sharing this experience with the world! Between this video and the New Zealand family’s video where they also cook food from scratch (second year now) to celebrate Thanksgiving (and American guests this year), it’s so great to see so many celebrating a holiday that’s an entire purpose is to have us stop briefly, remember gratitude, and celebrate that gratitude that we have. It’s not about celebrating any particular religion, culture, language, politics, ethnicity, etc. It’s a holiday about just being thankful and celebrating via whatever traditions one’s family may have (growing up one the differences in traditions between my paternal and maternal sides is that turkey and quail was eaten on the paternal side whereas ham and chicken were the main dishes on the maternal side; pecan pie was common on the maternal side along with key like pie my aunt from Florida would bring and the cajun dishes my cousins from Louisiana brought while on my paternal side apple, cherry, blueberry, and other fruit pies were common along with Amerind fried bread, fried okra, fried squash, and corn on the cob were cooked and we’d also have homemade tortillas made by my cousin from Arizona).
Any recipes you used would be amazing to have! I have never made anything for Thanksgiving and seeing this video and you made me want to host a Friendsgiving next year.
Looked like your poured rust into the coffee filter! :D My coffee powder is almost black.
Light roasts are better for pourovers!
This was amazing. And really inspiring!!!
This was a lovely video.
Peugeot, the best pepper mill / car company in the world
Good eye
Happy Thanksgiving! This was such a lovely video!
I'm so happy you did this, and so happy you shared it! That was an impressive feast. I'm going to have to learn to make French fried onions if I ever want green been casserole again. The store bought ones make me sick now, and I'm not sure why.
What makes this is that you are sharing this whole experience with someone
I always thought at thanks giving Americans are the same roast dinner that we eat at Christmas but just with pumpkin pie as desert instead of Christmas pudding ! How wrong I was :’)!! I have never even heard of green bean casserole or sweet potato casserole :’)! Maddd
Haven't seen the full video but I am wondering if you have the sweet potato or yams with marshmallows that concept seems amazing to me yet I've never tried as being British
I'm British but live in Slovakia and my American friend made it for once and I had sneered at the idea of it for years. Well, the joke was on me because it was amazing!!! I want to make the whole meal next year.
Wow! Great job.
Great video.
By far the best American holiday.
And yet judging by the comments, no-one seems to cook or bake for it but would rather buy takeaway.
Happy Thanksgiving from the US, Evan. Your meal looked delicious!
Great job! It looked delicious. I'm going to use your tips for making turkey for Christmas. 😊
That looked fantastic! One day I will try American Thanksgiving food.
Wow, impressed, that looked absolutely delicious...😊👌
Evan, Handy tip for next yr Whole Foods usually sells pumpkin in cans and even ready made pies
Great work Evan. I am super proud of you and everything you do. You have inspire to start cooking my own meals in the New Year. I would love to learn to cook a Turkey and make a Pumpkin pie. I'll keep you up to date on how I go
Chicken looks good
Leaving a comment for the algorithm
Now WHY IS THANKSGIVING NOT AN OFFICIAL CELEBRATION IN THE UK!?
Made it look super easy, barely an inconvenience 😉
I hope your worktops are heatproof
I'm stressed about the turkey-butter and cardigan mix! 😬
Where did your friend get the Cool Whip from? Fellow American here and amazed you found it!
She’s a flight attendant so just flew over from New York haha
Oh my goodness! I can't believe you made it all from scratch. I'm so impressed
Watching this while realy hungry was a mistake! looked fucking delicious!
That " kettle" looks like a watering can !!
Butter milk !?
Where was cool whip and apple cider found in the UK?? I’ve lived here for 3 years and have never seen them!
Both flown over from New York
Wouldn't mind the gravy but there is a layer of grease on it. But the rest looks lovely
The orientation of your knives always send me crazy, considering you're right-handed
Wow, all from scratch. The turkey looked amazing. I tend to take a few short-cuts on some of these dishes. No pumpkin pie for me though, apple crisp all the way. You definitely lost me on the cool whip though. All this healthy, from-scratch stuff, and then this horrible, processed abomination?
I also had ice cream available haha. I usually make my own whip cream but cool whip just hits here!!
What was that coffee making contraption at the start of the video? You need to get yourself a coffee percolator
Next time, use the turkey neck, heart and kidneys for the stock. This is a TURKEY dinner...not a CHICKEN dinner!
Omg that all looks so delicious! Except I would die if I tried to eat that turkey. Stupid pork allergy!!!
Well done looked great. Tip to the cook.... Tie your hair back. Less hair in food and more hygienic not to keep brushing out of your eyes whilst cooking. Made me feel ick! Haha xx
Wearing a hat at home is such a weird thing too me as a Pole. Do any europeans do that? Nice video btw. :)
Poor turkey 😭🦃
Why would you use butter with MSG in it? Butter is lovely on its own. I didn't even know you could buy butter with that additive.
You can't, you make it yourself
@@EvanEdingerTravel ok, thanks Evan.
First
Congratulations
Well done. Your parents must be so proud.
@@oxgoth loool
@@oxgoth I think they would be amazingly confused by the cultural phenomenon that is commenting first 😂
@@TheLonelyGod42 loool🤣😂
U look so much like my aunt Betty that the resemblance is a bit uncanny
