World renown chef and restaurant owner Wolfgang Puck pays a visit to "The Talk" and whips up something special with Julie Chen and Sharon Osbourne.

Puck prepared a gourmet Thanksgiving meal featuring a turkey with all of the fixins. He began with the caramelized brussel sprouts cracking a few jokes here and there about the smell of them while they cooked.

Puck says that he likes to buy a smaller sized turkey because they are much easier to cook.

He chops up a few sweet potatoes and adds it to the roasting pan with his turkey along with some cinnamon and ginger.

Wolfgang plugged one of his ovens that cooked the entire turkey in 55 minutes. The delicious turkey dinner is followed up with an equally appealing dessert.

The creme caramel is one of the smaller desserts that accompanied the sweet potatoes topped with more cream.

According to his biography, "Puck began cooking at his mother's side as a child. She was a chef in the Austrian town where he was born, and with her encouragement, Wolfgang began his formal training at fourteen years of age."

"As a young chef he worked in some of France's greatest restaurants, including Maxim's in Paris, the Hotel de Paris in Monaco, and the Michelin 3-starred L'Oustau de Baumaniere in Provence.

At the age of 24, Wolfgang took the advice of a friend and left Europe for the United States. His first job was at the restaurant La Tour in Indianapolis, where he worked from 1973 to 1975."

Puck is frequently seen on Home Shopping Network as he promotes his recipes and cookware that he has been using throughout his lengthy time in the food industry.
