Justin Moore and his family will celebrate Thanksgiving in their new home in Arkansas and Justin’s sole focus will be the turkey. Justin says, “Years ago when I moved to Nashville a couple of friends of ours had a really cool tradition of all the guys get together the day before Thanksgiving, drink beer and fry turkeys for their family. So we’d have five or six big pots out and we’d all bring our turkey and drink beer and fry our turkey. And so we haven’t done that yet where we do it with all guys, which would be, I think, a lot of fun. But I have done, on Thanksgiving the last three or four years for our family, I’ve fried a couple of turkeys. So that’s kind of our tradition now and that’s my contribution.”
Justin loves to cook in general, but he leaves all the side dishes and desserts to other family members. He says, “I don’t make dressing because my mom and some of the other folks in our family do it better than I do. My mom and dad usually make that. My father-in-law makes the best sweet potato casserole I’ve ever eaten, so I’ll leave that to him. But I do fry the turkeys.”
Justin, whose latest single is “Kinda Don’t Care,” has wrapped up his Hell On A Highway Tour for this year, but he’ll start it back up on January 18th.
