The Thanksgiving-style nibbling? It has a way of beginning days or even weeks before the fourth Thursday in November arrives.
You might grab a handful of miniature marshmallows from the bag, the one you bought to top your family-famous sweet potato dish. And breaking into that can of cranberry sauce? You could, if the rather plain ice cream in your freezer requires an autumn-zesty topping.
But you don't need to peruse your own pantry in early November for Thanksgiving goodies: Dog Haus is now serving the holiday-themed Turducken, a turkey, duck, and chicken sausage that summons the flavors of the season.

The sausage is topped with a garlic aioli, turkey gravy, and crispy onions; oh yes, and fresh scallions, too. And the bread? It's all encased in King's Hawaiian rolls, a favorite bun choice of Dog Haus.
The Turducken Burrito, the other seasonal menu star this November, features the sausage as well as "... three sunny side up eggs, white American cheese, sweet potato fries, caramelized onions and spicy mayo in an expertly rolled and toasted flour tortilla."
Sales of the Turducken and the Turducken Burrito will help raise money for No Kid Hungry, the longtime charity partner of Dog Haus; a dollar from each dish sold will be donated to the organization.
