13 Recipes That Prove You Don’t Need Oven Space to Cook Thanksgiving

If your oven is full of a giant turkey, or even if that crucial kitchen appliance is out of commission completely this fall, don’t let it deter you from cooking a menu packed smoky, sweet, tangy, toasty flavors. These Thanksgiving recipes put the air fryer and grill to use—and skip the oven in favor of a stovetop burner or a portable induction cooktop. There’s a cocktail hour involving whiskey and smoked salmon, plenty of stovetop sides, and a turkey grilled under a brick, rubbed with plenty of paprika, thyme, and brown sugar. And for dessert? There’s a cool, creamy, make-ahead option, and a cozy pie alternative to savor with your after-dinner frozen amaro.
