My mom made a center piece dish by stuffing a sugar pumpkin with a mix of pork(leftover), apples, raisins, walnuts,
      cinnamon, sugar.
      All quanities were based on what she had left(she raised 8 kids). Just scoop out the seeds, stuff, and put the lid back
      on. Bake in a shallow dish at 350F for 1 hour. It can also be stuffed with baked beans or a meat loaf (poke some holes
      in the bottom of the pumpkin for the grease to drain) May need more time. She even won a little newspaper recipee
      contest. Happy Thanksgiving!
