Thanksgiving is one of our favorite holidays in the Smoky Mountains. It is the one time of year where we are able to sit back with the ones we love and reflect on the many blessings that life has brought us this year.
However, the one thing we are not always thankful for is cooking the Thanksgiving dinner. Yes, there are so many family recipes we love to share and enjoy with the ones we love, but between the preparing and the clean up there is a lot of work that goes into preparing this family feast.
That is why we have decided to do a little research to see which of our favorite Smoky Mountain restaurants will be open for Thanksgiving this year, so guests can still enjoy all the benefits of spending time with friends and family without any of the headaches in the kitchen.
