Nov. 23, 2010— -- Warm Thanksgiving memories are often made when plates piled high with rich, delicious dishes are passed around the dinner table. Whether you stuff your stuffing with oysters or swap out turkey for Cornish hens, everyone has their own recipes for making Thanksgiving Day special, including famous chefs.
From the traditional to the experimental, "Nightline" has collected Thanksgiving recipe favorites for you to try on your dinner table from our Platelist featured reknowned chefs including Guy Fieri, Paula Deen, Daniel Boulud and Dan Barber.
Growing up, Chef Guy Fieri says his family never had a "normal" Thanksgiving. From lamb to salmon, there was nothing that was left off of his family's Thanksgiving dinner table, not even a barbecued turkey.
"I never heard of barbecuing a turkey, a matter of fact I wouldn't even tell anyone we barbecued the turkey, because everyone else did normal turkey, but not the Fieri's. We barbecued it," he said.
