Well-Oiled Events' Thanksgiving Take & Bake menu is back for 2026. Email your order to info@welloiledevents.com by Wednesday, November 18, then pick it up Wednesday, November 25, between noon and 3 p.m. at 14333 Beach Blvd., Suite 101, in Jacksonville Beach. Turkey and ham serve 8. Sides serve 4.

Hosting Thanksgiving usually means a 6 a.m. oven and a kitchen nobody else is allowed into. This year it can be a Wednesday afternoon pickup instead.

Proteins (Serve 8)

  • Traditional roasted whole turkey breast and pulled dark meat with pan gravy, $75
  • Brown sugar glazed boneless ham roast, $70

Sides (Serve 4)

  • Whipped potatoes and pan gravy, $22
  • Traditional herb stuffing, $22
  • Smoked gouda and white cheddar mac and cheese, $22
  • Roasted Brussels sprouts with pancetta and balsamic, $22
  • Broccoli and cauliflower au gratin, $22

  • Fall apple salad with brie croutons, dried cranberries, sliced almonds, and hot honey vinaigrette, $22
  • Sweet potato silk with pecan streusel, $18
  • Herb focaccia loaf with olive oil butter and smoked Maldon salt, $18

Extras

  • Quart of pan gravy, $12
  • Pint of cranberry sauce, $9
  • Wild mushroom and Boursin arancini, 10 pieces, $30

The classics are all there. The "Well-Oiled twists" the kitchen promised show up in the gnocchi, the hot honey apple salad, and the arancini, which work as an appetizer while the turkey reheats.

How Much to Order for 8 People

For every 8 guests, plan on one protein and two orders of each side. A dinner for 8 could look like this:

  • Turkey breast and dark meat, $75
  • Whipped potatoes and pan gravy, 2 orders, $44
  • Herb stuffing, 2 orders, $44
  • Brussels sprouts with pancetta, 2 orders, $44
  • Pint of cranberry sauce, $9

That's $216 before tax, or about $27 a person. For a bigger table, add the ham and a third order of each side. The turkey and the potatoes both come with pan gravy. The extra quart is $12, and whether you need it depends on who's coming.

Who's Cooking

Well-Oiled Events is run by three hospitality partners who list themselves as engineers. Michael Ramsey, the Culinary Engineer, started as a self-taught chef in Jacksonville, moved into private clubs, and according to the company served as the official chef for Team USA's Ryder Cup team in France. Carrie Mengerink, a UNF graduate, is the Creative and Sales Engineer. Adam Abbott, a 2009 graduate of Cornell's hospitality school, is the Logistics Engineer.

Thanksgiving is mostly a logistics problem. It helps that someone has the title.

What to Expect at Pickup

Take & Bake means the food is cooked and you finish it in your own oven on Thursday. Reheating instructions come with every order. One past holiday customer wrote on Thumbtack that day-before pickup was quick and the meal took about 35 minutes in the kitchen with the company's instructions.

The shop is on Beach Boulevard with a Jacksonville Beach address. Parking details come with your order confirmation. Bring a card or cash for the balance. Get driving directions to Well-Oiled Events.

Plan the Rest of Thanksgiving Week

With dinner handled on Wednesday, Thursday morning opens up. Tony's Turkey Trot and Petesgiving are both at the Beaches, and our guide to things to do Thanksgiving weekend covers Friday on. If you'd rather eat out, see what's open on Thanksgiving Day in Jacksonville.

Next step: email your order to info@welloiledevents.com by November 18. Pickup is Wednesday. The leftovers are your problem, which is how Thanksgiving is supposed to work.
