Not Hispanic here, but my mom used to have fresh beef liver for Thanksgiving. They raised turkeys and were THANKFUL not to have to eat it on that day! :o)

First, Bermúdez is not necessarily tía Carmen’s last name, it’s her nephew Sergio’s; second,Thanksgiving day doesn’t mean beans for Mexicans, there were no Pilgrims or Plymouth Rock there; third, Mexicans hardly eat pork.

I’m not “Mexican” or even Hispanic, but it is a New Mexican tradition to share tamales and posole for holiday feasts. I already have a pot of posole cooking for Thanksgiving.
