The almost endless amount of volunteers made short work of preparing nearly 2000 turkeys for the deep pits.
The birds are basted, spiced, bagged, wrapped, then placed in cages to await their final destination... an underground oven.
This faith-based cooking bonanza brings together people from 14 different local churches to give away food for body and soul.
These compassionate consumers spent almost $50,000 to buy these birds, and after they're cooked the final phase of their mission comes on Thanksgiving day.
Organizers say you can head to the Costco on Rosedale Highway Thanksgiving morning between 5:30 AM and 6 AM to help deliver the meals to the families in need.
