Everything Thanksgiving: Get all our Thanksgiving recipes, how-tos and more !

Any Friends fan worth his salt remembers Ross Gellers favorite sandwich: a Thanksgiving leftover combo complete with a slice of bread soaked in gravy, known as the moist maker.

When Rosss beloved sandwich goes missing from the fridge at work a day that will live in infamy he has a bit of a meltdown .

How can a single sandwich cause so much grief? If you have to ask, youve clearly never had the Moist Maker.

The recipe is not clearly defined in the episode , so we have to go off Ross description and several variations floating around the web. Here are the generally agreed-upon ingredients in Ross Moist Maker sandwich:

  • 3 slices of bread
  • Leftover turkey
  • Leftover stuffing
  • Gravy

Once youve got these basics down, you can consider adding in some extras. Gothamist and As Eaten On TV suggest mixing in leftover cranberry sauce , while BuzzFeed recommends adding mashed potatoes .

But first, begin soaking one slice of bread in gravy. Make sure the slice is thoroughly coated and has time to absorb the liquid. While you wait, take another slice of bread and top it off with leftover turkey. When youre ready, place the moist maker on top of the turkey. Then add stuffing, any preferred additions (like cranberry sauce or potatoes) and complete the sandwich with the third slice of bread.

Its not rocket science or, more appropriately, paleontology . The Moist Maker is a simple sandwich. Of course, it would be even simpler to just plop your leftovers on a dish and reheat them in the microwave, but wheres the fun in that?

Good luck keeping your coworkers hands off of this glorious creation.
