Georgia Boatwright gave my momma this recipe at least 30 years ago. It is almost a meal in itself. It involves a great deal of preparation, but it is so worth it and the making of it is part of our family's tradition. From the time they were 2 years old, my children have helped to make it. (Toddlers are excellent crumb-makers!) My youngest loves it so much, I sometimes make it even when it isn't Thanksgiving.
