There’s nothing wrong with accepting a little help to get the Thanksgiving meal to your dining room table. While you could certainly do a potluck, letting one of the places below help you plan you feast will create a cohesive meal (no one wants three candied yams, no cranberry sauce, and a bunch of flavors that don’t jive). Not looking for a whole meal? You’ll also find à la carte options below so you can just order a tray of stuffing or a few perfect pies.
The Market at Pound Ridge Square
55 Westchester Ave, Pound Ridge; 914.764.5736
This market has everything you could possibly need for Thanksgiving from turkey (they’ll even carve it for you) to prime rib, ham and beef tenderloin. Sides — sausage stuffing, roasted Brussels sprouts, green beans almondine, mashed sweet potatoes with brown sugar, and turkey gravy — are delightfully traditional. Added bonus: The market is also a bakery, where you can pick up warm dinner rolls, pies, and pumpkin cheesecake.
The Details: Pricing is à la carte. For savory items, order by Nov 14. The bakery accepts orders until Nov 20. Pickup on Thanksgiving until 11 a.m.
Dig Inn
112 S Ridge St, Rye Brook; 914.305.8463
Looking to add a healthy flare to your Thanksgiving table? Check out Dig Inn’s Thanksgiving package. (It doesn’t show up on the normal catering menu. Click order, enter your location, and you’ll unlock the options.) The $170 Thanksgiving catering package includes roasted turkey breast, gravy, cranberry sauce, Brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, and cornbread. This is a place that excels at sides, and if it were up to us, we’d order a few from the regular catering menu — mac ’n’ cheese, charred Brussels sprouts with honey-chili oil, roasted sweet potatoes — and call our contribution to the potluck done.
The Details: Orders must be received at least 24 hours in advance. Pickup at the Rye Brook location the day before Thanksgiving.
Plates

Ladle of Love

For owners Leslie and Jennifer Lampert, Thanksgiving is one of the busiest days of the year. You can order most dishes à la carte, but the Family Feast ($375, serves 6) includes a turkey and all the trimmings like (un)creamed autumn greens, stuffing, Sauvignon Blanc gravy, and cranberry-orange sauce. Don’t skip the soups, including Lampert’s famous Harvest Celebration and a seasonal truffle-cauliflower variety.
The Details: Orders must be placed by Nov 15.
Martha & Marley Spoon
It’s not technically to-go, but for someone who wants to cook but finds the planning overwhelming, this Martha Stewart-curated meal kit might be just the ticket. The Complete Feast ($159.99, serves 8-10) included everything you’ll need to impress your guests from a brown-sugar glazed turkey with gravy, to a quartet of sides and a stunning apple-oat crisp. Either way, ingredients are pre-measured, the instructions are thorough, and all you’ll need to have on hand is salt, pepper, and a little oil.
The Details: Orders must be placed by Nov 14. Everything is delivered directly to your door.
