It’s like getting into the kitchen with your favorite uncle; there’s just a certain familiarity to AB’s way of teaching us that we can’t get enough of. Whether you want some ribs on the menu, candied yams, or a good old pinto bean, he’s got it all. AB’s cooking feels like home, and it’s surely where the heart is.
Camirra’s Kitchen (163K Subscribers)
With more than 200 videos for you to choose from, Camirra’s Kitchen is your best destination for Thanksgiving recipes. Never one to be under seasoned, she’s got you covered from breakfast to a brown sugar ham that’s falling off the bone. We were also extremely impressed by her $50 Thanksgiving feast videos. Baby get yourself a full meal on a budget and stop playing!
Darius Cooks (343K Subscribers)
You hungry? Let’s make a snack! An OG in the internet cooking world, Darius still has some of the most delicious recipes we’ve ever tasted. No matter how many times we’ve tried one of his recipes, it just never disappoints, and he’s great at really breaking down just what to do. It’s one of those pages where you get hungry just looking at the meals. If you want to make sure you have no misses this Thanksgiving, his YouTube page is an absolute must!
Kimmy’s Kreations (346K Subscribers)
Kimmy is a mainstay on our computer screens. If we’re ever looking to go on a diet, we just scroll right on past because she’s guaranteed to make you break it. A mom of 3 who swears she’s not a chef, Kimmy just makes it look easy. Whether you’re looking for a few quick Thanksgiving appetizers, a spin on your traditional Thanksgiving staples, or some really quick and delicious desserts, she’s got you covered. We cannot wait to try her seafood mac and cheese and of course, the no-bake cheesecake with the airplane cookies! We recommend making two so you don’t have to share.
Say What! It’s Vegan? (20K Subscribers)
W
e lucked up on Chef Joya when we came across her page on Instagram recently. We followed the internet rabbit hole to YouTube where we found so many of her amazing vegan recipes. Chef Joya is an award-winning celebrity vegan chef and Fantasia Barrino’s personal chef. She is the author of four vegan cookbooks and has been featured on Food Network. Most importantly, she recently got the Tabitha Brown stamp of approval, and that’s as good as gold in our book.
She calls herself the queen of mac and cheese, vegan and non-vegan, and just based on the gooeyness, this vegan option will not disappoint. Let’s make sure we’re clean eating during the holidays and giving our plant-based cousins some healthier and delicious options!
Pro-tip – test out some of these dishes before the big day. Ain’t nobody got time to be experimenting on Thanksgiving. Happy Holidays!
