The 2015 San Francisco Thanksgiving Take-Out and Delivery Guide

Turkey from Bel Campo Meat Co.
Daniel Dent

You could spend the entire week of Thanksgiving slaving away over a hot stove — or you could order from one of these places with just a few clicks and get your meal to-go (or even delivered!). Whether you need help with the turkey, the sides, the pies, or all of it (no shame in your Thanksgiving game), these Bay Area places are here to make your holiday a whole lot easier.

1 A.G. Ferrari

Put a charcuterie platter out during the football game or add a bit of an Italian flair to your dinner with sides like roasted Brussels sprouts with fresh herbs and garlic oil, roasted cauliflower with golden raisins, fried capers, lemon zest, and Italian parsley. Plus, your vegetarian guests will be very impressed when they find out they get a kale and leek lasagna and won't have to survive on stuffing and pie alone. A.G. Ferrari even delivers their catering menu throughout SF and the East Bay. See the full menu here. To order, call 510-346-2112 or email. Or you can pick up holiday sides at one of their stores.

2 Belcampo Meat Co.

You know who ate organic? Everyone at the first-ever Thanksgiving feast. Belcampo Meat Co. totally gets that which is why they're offering a whole Thanksgiving meal for eight to 10 people that includes a smoked turkey breast from a bird who lived a happy and healthy life, traditional stuffing, cranberry sauce, gravy, your choice of vegetables, and potatoes (roasted plain or mashed sweet). The meal costs $199, which is decidedly a bit more than the Pilgrims and Native Americans spent, but probably worth every penny. Pre-order here.

There will also be a bunch of other Thanksgiving deliciousness, like pies from Three Babes, Black Jet Bakery, and Battery Bakery and prepared sides (stuffing, green beans, orange cranberry relish, etc.) from Square Meals available as of Saturday, November 14.
