Shoepeg corn is a cultivar of white sweetcorn valued for its sweetness. It is characterized by small, narrow kernels tightly and unevenly packed on the cob. The corn has a sweet, mild flavor. Shoepeg corn is more commonly used in the south. The name “shoepeg corn” derives from a shoemaking term used during the 1800s. Shoepeg corn kernels resemble the wooden pegs used to attach soles to the upper part of shoes.

Trash Can Turkey
Best turkey you ever tasted!
The Trash Can turkey is a great alternative to the traditional roasting in the oven bird and can be done out in the yard while your oven is busy with the rest of the meal. It can also be made while camping.
I didn’t believe it when someone told me about roasting a turkey in a garbage can. I thought they were kidding. But one Thanksgiving we decided to try it. Because we were doubters, we also roasted a traditional turkey with stuffing in the oven. When it came time to taste them, everyone one agreed that the turkey roasted in the trash can was juicier and tasted way better than the traditional turkey.
Give it a try this Thanksgiving and see for yourself!
Follow these directions and have the best turkey you ever tasted in just 2 hours.
