Happy Thanksgiving to all of you from all of us at Steelers Wire. We hope you are getting to spend the holiday with the people you love and enjoying all of your favorite Thanksgiving foods. As we were preparing our own Thanksgiving feast it got us thinking. Which members of the Pittsburgh Steelers best represent our favorite Thanksgiving foods? Here are ours.
Roast turkey - HC Mike Tomlin
Steady, consistent, and unspectacular. You always know what you are going to get even if it isn’t perfect.
Dressing/Stuffing - WR George Pickens
You never know what you are going to get. Sometimes it just boring right out of the box and sometimes it is homemade and spectacular.
Ham - RB Jaylen Warren
Double smoked, brown sugar glazed and spiral cut. It’s the showstopper of the meal and the one thing that gets you excited every time.
Macaroni and cheese - Former OC Matt Canada
Looks great in the pan and then you spoon it up and someone made it with peas. So you throw it in the trash and never invite them back.
Green bean casserole - P Pressley Harvin III
Every year you wonder why they keep bringing it out and putting it on the table.
Cornbread - QB Kenny Pickett
Looks so good just sitting there in the pan but sometimes you cut into it and it’s just dry.
Deviled eggs - EDGE T.J. Watt
An absolute guilty pleasure, you always have too much of them and the food everyone fights for the last one.
Candied yams - CB Joey Porter Jr.
Not always right up front on the table but once you get them on your plate you wonder why you don’t make them more often.
Cranberry sauce - OT Dan Moore Jr.
It’s exactly what you expect. Nothing special, kind of fake but some people insist on keeping it around.
Pumpkin pie - K Chris Boswell
Good every time and no matter how full you are, there’s always room for some pumpkin pie.
Dinner rolls - DT Cam Heyward
Like Heyward, those hot fresh dinner rolls with butter are always satisfying and you just can’t seem to get enough of them.
