Thanksgiving doesn’t have to mean hours in the kitchen. Whether you’re short on time, cooking for a crowd, or just want to enjoy the holiday without stress, several Lubbock restaurants and grocery stores offer pre-cooked Thanksgiving dinners that are ready to heat and serve. From smoked turkey and traditional sides to full gourmet spreads, there’s an option for every budget and taste.
Note that many of these options will come refrigerated and will need to be heated before serving.
Market Street and United Supermarkets
Affordable, reliable, and delicious, Market Street and United have a huge team of experts to help you with your holiday meal on any level. You can order a complete holiday dinner online or talk to the friendly concierge at any Market Street. Also a great option for party trays, cakes, and other baked goods, and floral table displays.

Pies, Cakes & More
There are far too many amazing local bakeries to list, but I do encourage you to utilize a local bakery for one (or a few) of your desserts. There’s only so much space in the oven, and so much time you can spend in the kitchen- cut yourself a break and buy the cake!
If you’d rather spend your Thanksgiving catching up with family instead of scrubbing pans, Lubbock’s pre-cooked meal options make it easy. Order as soon as possible, as most places have limited quantities, and get ready to relax and enjoy a stress-free holiday feast.
